Network access to Windows Mobile 5 Device (new linux user)

[Jim Tippett]

When I connect my ASUS A632 PDA (Windows Mobile 5) to my desktop (Ubuntu
9.04) via USB I get the notification Auto Eth1  Wired Network (ASUSTek
Computer A63X in RNDIS mode) but I cannot access it when I go to Places,
Network.

If I change the USB connections setting on the PDA from Transmission as
Network Interface to Simulation as Card Reader I get the notification
¨wired network disconnected" and I can see the PDA´s SD card when I go
to Places, Computer.  I can only see the SD card though.

I would like to be able to access all storage areas on the PDA and
thought I might be able be able to do this via the Network given I can
see the  Auto Eth 1 connection.  Any suggestions (for a novice Linux
user)?

Thanks,

Jim

wireless problem

[James Takac]

Hi Guys

I seem to have an interesting wireless problem with one of my laptops. It's an 
Asus F3SC and until recently the wireless connection was working fine. Right 
now it shows as connected via wireless going by the network icon. If I use 
ifconfig it shows I have an IP of 10.1.1.9 for that device but I can't access 
the net or even the modem, a D-LINK DSL G604T. The other interesting bit is 
that the ethernet port is given the IP of 10.1.1.4 and if I try to ping the 
modem it tells me that from 10.1.1.4 host is unreachable. Is it possible it's 
somehow trying to use my ethernet connection which isn't plugged in at the 
time instead of the wireless part? I've tried googling for an answer and 
haven't yet seen anything that I can use to troubleshoot this. I'll supply 
any info needed of course. Any ideas as to what I can look for/try?

Try installing hplip-gui and see what it tells you about the printer. 
You may need to update to a newer version of CUPS to get full support
for it.  The first place to try for this would be hardy's backports. 
You can enable backports in your software sources, then run update
manager to check for updates, then install only the packages with "cups"
in their name.  Then turn off backports if you don't want lots & lots of
packages to update regularly.

Post the output of 'ip addr show' and 'ip route ls' and we might be able
to give you some more information.  My guess is that you have something
wrong with your netmasks or something like that.

It seems to me that your network setup is reasonable (although i'm not
sure why you've ended up with two default routes).

With wireless off and ethernet plugged in, can you ping 10.1.1.1?
What about with wireless on and ethernet off?
What about with both on?

I "guess" the the 2 default gateways are based around the 2 interfaces. I 
could be wrong of course. However neither ethernet nor wireless interface it 
seems can reach the net or even the modem itself

I have 6 other systems on the network that can access it fine. Just that one 
laptop. I didn't make any changes to the network config so all I can think of 
is some glitch re the hardware. I even tried loading the prev kernel and no 
difference. I accessed the modems settings via this pc and can't see anything 
that should block the other laptop so I'm at a loss apart from thinking some 
file re my connections settings got screwed somehow?

Re: wireless problem

Hi...

Are you getting your routes from DHCP or are they set statically? 

Also confirm your settings from one of the other PC's that you have
working on your network. 

Is there a conflict with IP numbers?

Those are good suggestions.  James, can you post the output of the ip
commands you used before from another (working) machine?  (Use "ipconfig
/all" and "netstat -rn" instead if it's a Windows system.)

Just for the record I hadn't seen Scott's post yet so am assuming I will when 
I check my google spam folder.

I thought ipconfig was the Windows program and ifconfig was the Linux one? 
ipconfig doesn't work on any of my Ubuntu distros whilst ifconfig does

Anyways the ouputs from this pc are as follows

This is from a working unit, i.e. the one I'm typing on right now. It could be

That's right - i was suggesting the other commands in case your only
working machines were Windows PCs.

That seems likely given that your settings listed above are almost
identical to the non-working laptop.  You're also using a different
wireless chipset (one with which i'm unfamiliar), so that may have some
effect as well.  Did you try reconfiguring your wireless with Network
Manager?  (That is grasping at straws - it should still work with
wireless turned off and the Ethernet plugged in.)  To do this, right
click the network icon, choose Edit Connections, and either delete and
re-add, or edit your wireless connection info.
