I don't see what I should do. I put the modem into the fonera, wait it to settle, check the output of `dmesg` and `logread` and do not recognize the parts informing me about the network devices being created, it's still seen just as a scsi cdrom. I did `insmod usbnet` and `insmod cdc_ether` and used `lsmod` to verify they have been loaded, unplug the modem and put it back, but `dmesg` and `logread` do not show any difference. when I check the output of `ifconfig`, it gives me just the eth0, eth0.1, eth0.2 devices that are anyway present.
anything else I could do or check? thanks, MF On Sun, 6 Jan 2013 09:59:01 -0500 Mario Frasca <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Mattijs, > > sorry it took some time, I was at first just blindly checking the link > you had sent me, then I realized I had to look for builds *after* the > one you had given me. once I had realized that, I could not find the > time to do it! :) > > finally today I went to > http://download.fonosfera.org/auto-builds/fon-ng/, chose latest build > and within it, I selected the subdir /fonera2n/packages/mipsel/. in > practice, I ended in the URL > http://download.fonosfera.org/auto-builds/fon-ng/fon-ng-r2263/fonera2n/packages/mipsel/, > which was built on the 3rd of January. > > I downloaded all files starting with kmod-usb-net and uploaded them to > the fonera. > > here is the transcript: > -------------------------------- > root@Fonera:~# opkg install > kmod-usb-net-cdc-ether_2.6.21.7-fonera2n-1_mipsel.ipk Installing > kmod-usb-net-cdc-ether (2.6.21.7-fonera2n-1) to root...
