What exactly did you try when you checked this?

Re: OpenBSD + 3G/4G USB modem

[MS]

nope, no com at umodem nor at umm...
So OpenBSD finds my modem, recognizes it, but doesn't treat it like a
modem. My modem has been literally friendzoned by OpenBSD

 Do you have ucom at umodem in dmesg?
Or ucom at umsm?

Yes, OpenBSD does not attach your modem to ucom.

Can you try with othe modem?

That some modems attach to many devs is normal. You must try with any
of them until you find the one that responds to AT commands.

Is the modem pluged to a USB port?

You should see in dmesg something like: ucom0 at umodem0

That would be not normal in your dmesg!

ok, so I ejected the cd1 and OBSD started seeing ZTE as a umodem, but

Try ejecting the "CD".

Try "eject cd0". That may be enough, if that works then you have an
interim solution and we can add a DEV_UMASS4 quirk for the device.
Please send new dmesg and usbdevs -vd after the eject command has run.

If it doesn't seem to do anything useful, there are some other more
vendor-specific quirks we can try, but those will need rebuilding
a kernel to test, so give "eject" a go first.

It would be a cuaU* device, the exact number depends on whether you have
other USB UARTs and on how the device itself works (there are often
additional "control-only" devices).

"not configured" suggests there might be a problem though. Showing a
dmesg and usbdevs -dv with the device plugged in would be a good start.
(complete dmesg, don't trim it).

I am curious to see your tutorial at the end. :)



One more thing though, how do I know which USB port is which cuaXX?


Just plug the modem in a USB Port and see dmesg. You can also see
"man ucom".

It may happen that there appear many cuaUX. Try "cu -l" to each
and give the command "AT", the modem should answer with "OK".
If not, go out with "~." and try other.

By the way, you need from Provider:

(1) APN. You give it to the modem with AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","APNofProvider"
(2) User and Pass. May be there are no auth, then there is nothing to
do. Otherwise user in the options file, user and pass in the chap
or pap secret files.
(3) Telefone Number. You give it to the modem with ATDT. At best in chat
script.

The connect script may look like:

REPORT CONNECT
ABORT BUSY
ABORT 'NO CARRIER'
ABORT ERROR
ABORT 'NO DIALTONE'
ABORT 'NO ANSWER'
'' at
OK atz
OK 'atdt*99#'
CONNECT

And the disconnect script:

ABORT 'NO CARRIER'
ABORT ERROR
ABORT 'NO DIALTONE'
ABORT 'NO ANSWER'
'' '\K'
'' '+++ATH'

In any case read chat to see how they are constructed, perhaps
you should better add some "SAY" statements to the above scripts to
better follow what happens.

And of course, you can also see "/var/log/messages" when testing.

[MS]

Thanks a lot! You Sir are a hero! :)
I will try it and let you know about the problems/results.

One more thing though, how do I know which USB port is which cuaXX? If I
connect to cua00 it seems to start conversation but the whole thing
freezes. cuaU0 gives not configured info.

Thanks,
MS

I use it since years.


I've read the manuals, but can't really glue the whole thing together
to make it work.


Yes, the manuals and the files/examples in /etc/ppp should be enough.
It should be like configuring an old analog modem (That I never needed :).

Some ideas to get the whole picture:

(1) You need to create a ppp interface, let us say do
 "ifconfig ppp0 create". See "man 4 ppp" for it.

(2) You need need the modem to be ready for the connection,
 first connect to it with "cu -l /dev/cuaU0" (if it is
 pluged in cuaU0) and give commands like:

 AT
 AT+CPIN="YourPin"
 AT+CGCONT=1,"IP","APNofYourProvider" [perhaps only once, modem saves it]
 ~. [to leave the session]

You can see more commands here:

http://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_ts/127000_127099/127007/13.03.00_60/ts_127007v130300p.pdf
http://smssolutions.net/tutorials/gsm/

(3) With "man pppd" you learn how to write a file with "options" that
 goes to the directory "/etc/ppp/peers/". It depends on your
 modem, on your provider. Let us call it "/etc/ppp/peers/xyz".
 Then you start the connection with "pppd call xyz". See with
 "ifconfig" what happens.

(4) You need to set manually a DNS in "/etc/resolv.conf", unfortunately
 OpenBSDs pppd does not do it.

Back to "/etc/ppp/peers/xyz". There are lines ("options") of the form

connect "/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/ppp/con.chat"
disconnect "/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/ppp/dis.chat"

They call the program "chat" applied to the "chat scripts" con.chat 
and dis.chat when connecting and disconnecting, chat communicate

with the modem. See "man 8 chat" to see how the chat scripts are
written. The above commands (after cu) could be for example included
in con.chat. You could also use other programs different from chat.

You also can see in in "/etc/ppp/peers/xyz" a line of the form

user username

For this username there should be a password in the file
"/etc/ppp/chap-secrets" or "/etc/ppp/pap-secrets". The
provider gives you this username and password. Authentication is
also described in "man 8 pppd".

I hope, you get now the whole picture and can concentrate on the details.

Any corrections or commentaries there?

Rodrigo.
