I got my e1550 modem to work by installing the package "usb-modeswitch". If I plug the modem to the computer while usb-modesiwtch is installed it automatically works and I can use the wizard provided by the network- manager applet. It did, however, not ask me for the pin code and to get the modem to work I was needed to manually provide it in the network- manager settings, accessible thru the applet.
I hope that this will help you guys and I also hopes that usb_modeswitch will be included in the next cd-image release (ie. a dependency of ubuntu-desktop), it would only require ~45kB. If not include in the standard release it should at least be included in the netbook edition. /Linus Unnebäck -- Ubuntu 10.04 can not detect Huawei E 1550 Modem https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/577721 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
