Re: [osol-discuss] 2010.03 OSOL improvements regarding 3G USB HSDPA modems? Android+OSOL?
Thanks Ken! I will do that and see if somebody can help me. I'm at work at the moment, but will post the output of "mdb -k ::prtusb -i e -v" command once I get home to my personal computer. Can't wait to get Open Solaris to work on my computer. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Thanks Matthias for your comments! Wireless router that supports my 3G is actually a very good idea (these are pretty cheap today I suppose) and the possible solution I will use if I will not get this 3G USB modem to work with the configuration tips I might get from other users.

Hi Jussi, The 3G modems are 'supported' but you may have to configure them and modify the drivers (IDs) to your modem. A few walkthroughs are available. Ask for detailed help at wwan-discuss and give them the output from "mdb -k ::prtusb -i e -v" ~ Ken Mays --- On Wed, 3/17/10, Jussi Nieminen wrote: From: Jussi Nieminen Subject: [osol-discuss] 2010.03 OSOL improvements regarding 3G USB HSDPA modems?

Do anybody know if it will include improvements regarding 3G HSDPA USB modems? I tried very hard (read many, many threads regarding 3G USB HSDPA modems on OSOL and tried different configuration combinations) to get my 3G USB modem to work with 2009.06 release, but unfortunately couldn't and there is a hope that maybe this new soon to be released version would have some improvements in that area. I can't live without internet connection and 3G USB modem is my only way to use the internet at home. Can't wait to be able to set up a killer Java development environment on OSOL. I'm also planning to start developing mobile Android applications on OSOL - hopefully Android devs at Google will show some love towards OSOL users who are using OSOL to develop Android apps and will release Android dev tools to OSOL as well. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org

Additionally, and sorry for the noise: Even many PDAs allow for "tethering", meaning, being the accesspoint via 3G and exposing that access via WiFi. The iPhone does that, and most Symbian S60 devices (for example the Nokia E71) can do that with the Joikuspot software... So, even no need to buy a router... ;-) Matthias I (Matthias Pfützner) wrote: > 3G is the ONLY way at home? So, why plug a 3G USB stick into each device at > home?

3G is the ONLY way at home? So, why plug a 3G USB stick into each device at home? Why not buy a ROUTER, that allows the use of a 3G USB Stick as access point to the internet? That way you would be able to allow ALL devices at home access. These router nowadays have WiFi, and OSOL does support MANY WiFi cards directly... Even most PDAs (read Nokia E71, iPhone) nowadays have WiFi... That would create a UNIQUE network at home, with high-speed, and a somewhat slower external network (aka Internet) access...
