RE: Connecting with a Mobile

2008-04-21 Thread PEDRO MACANAS VALVERDE

>What is the device? With my Huewi USB dongle and the new connection
editor all I had to do to get it working was to edit the connection to
add the APN into the config. All the rest with my provider was the
default.

With a system similar to DHCP, it would not be necessary to add the APN also.  
This would improve PPP and the easiness of the connection.
 
In ADSL modems it is plug and surf  (and remember Huawei E220 and similar USB 
cell modems are broadband modems like ADSL).
 
Regards.

One could include them in a Wiki about Wireless and Linux.

My Acer has a broadcom wireless card too, and it works. You need a very
recent kernel, 2.6.24-r2 or later. The B43 driver is included in this
kernel, but you need firmware.

To get the firmware, have a look here:

I don't know that kind of pcmcia card. There is another problem that
MFGs tend to build FOO_WLAN_CARD rev1.1 which is well supported in
linux, and FOO_WLAN_CARD rev1.1a which is using an totally different
chipset and doesn't work at all.

from my experience: 
a) try to get the broadcom to work. cheapest solution ($0), and you
don't need to fuck around with an pcmcia card.

b) if a) fails: identify what type of builtin wlan card your dell uses
(mini-PCI or mini-PCIexpress). Get a card with an Intel chipset and
replace the card.

Intel still needs firmware, but their firmware is freely (->beer)
redistributable, so maybe there are packages for FC9, that you just can
install with yum.
