I am currently running puppy off a usb drive. I am trying to use the Huawei EC156 usb 3g dongle. It mounts a virtual cd to install the software(for both windows and linux). The disc boots up fine but puppy cannot detect the modem part. How do I connect without installing the useless software supplied by the network provider. |

I'm guesing you need to install the software/drivers. Puppy doesn't out-of-the-box support 3g dongles. _________________ Desktop: Intel 945PSN Board, 3.2Ghz P-IV "Prescott 2M", 2GB RAM, 160GB WD HDD (IDE connected as SATA), Slackware 14.1, LMDE, Akita Beta 16 and Puppy Arcade 11 Netbook: Acer AOD257 with 2GB upgrade, Slackware 14.1 and LMDE |

You need usb-modeswitch software for the modem to be releaved with disk. Then you can use pupdial. In Precise 5.4.3 usb-modeswitch is built-in and your dongle should be supported as you can control at: http://www.draisberghof.de/usb_modeswitch/device_reference.txt In other puppies you must install usb-modeswitch or compile it. There are some pets in this forum but I have always compiled it: http://www.draisberghof.de/usb_modeswitch/#download |

Which puppy are you using? maybe your modem is not supported yet.. You need the latest usb_modeswitch 1.2.5. Or you can try with this line:
Can check it succes with the command 'lsusb', device should show as modem now. Then try to connect with pupdial. Also you can look at this: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=80012&sid=3e2adacfb98889d7992dc32ae0d6dc7a Good luck! |
