I have a Verizon USB720 dongle that shows up as ucom0. I intend to use it for connecting remotely with my X40. I'm having problems when packets exceed a certain size. When this happens, the return packets never make it back to my system.
I can connect fine with ppp(8). I can ping remote hosts and do traceroutes. I can ssh to hosts and perform basic commands. Only when the payload exceeds ~900 bytes do things start to fail. This happens with almost all TCP traffic, but is most noticeable with SSH or HTTP. Here is my ppp.conf: default: set device /dev/cuaU0 disable vjcomp set speed 921600 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \ \"\" AT OK-AT-OK ATE1Q0s7=60 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" set phone "#777" set login # obfuscated for her pleasure set authname 1234567...@vzw3g.com set authkey vzw set timeout 120 set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 add default HISADDR enable dns And here are some simple tests. I've created a test file of zeroes, increasing by 10 bytes each time. It finally stalls at 930 bytes. I've tried it with and without vjcomp. $ sudo ppp -ddial default Working in ddial mode Using interface: tun0 $ ifconfig tun tun0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 priority: 0 groups: tun egress inet 75.198.2.176 --> 66.174.112.64 netmask 0xffffff00 $ scp foobar:test.img /dev/null test.img 100% 900 0.9KB/s 00:00 $ scp foobar:test.img /dev/null test.img 100% 910 0.9KB/s 00:00 $ scp foobar:test.img /dev/null test.img 100% 920 0.9KB/s 00:00 $ scp foobar:test.img /dev/null test.img 0% 0 0.0KB/s - stalled - I've played with ppp(8) in interactive mode and confirmed that it doesn't restart the connection. It stays up, but packets where the exceeding payload occurs simply fail the return path (they leave the remote side). Here is my dmesg. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
