I am trying to set up my Reliance USB connector to send/receive SMS (And after this also voice calls) The Windows CD that comes along with mentions that this could be also used to do voice calls and SMS's.
I needed to do a little hack similar to described at http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/showthread.php?p=2791193 to get it working with Ubuntu 9.04 due to missing usbserial module. Now I can get the ZTE dongle to work as ppp connection very well and it give me decent speeds. Tail of system message when I plug the device in appended. Not really clear as to what all I need to install. I am trying to use smsd / smstools / gnokii to do the needful. (Kannel seems beyond me for now) As you can see from system messages, blow, the device gets recognised simultaneously as ttyUSB0 ttyUSB1 ttyUSB2 Now I am trying to use sendsms command. This sort of ends up saying message could not be sent. Now I am not sure if this is something to do with net getting gnokii settings right or not getting it right in /etc/smsd.conf Pointer and brickbats welcome ;-) -- Regards, Sudev Barar Read http://blog.sudev.in for topics ranging from here to there.
