An easy step

I has been published my installer call he220rc2. There's no deb or rpm files, I'm just using tar.gz because it is universal. A unic about unix is most of your installation done in terminal. One of important stuff for installation is “make” and one of important dialer stuff is wvdial + wvstreams. How to install the he220rc2 installer?

  1. Insert huawei E220 modem –> boot pc –>wait for a minute –> open terminal
  1. cd to the installer –> key in make –> read it
  1. key in make install –> wait and see whether it is finishing a installation. You should see this:

Found a modem on /dev/ttyUSB1. Modem configuration written to /etc/wvdial.conf. ttyUSB1: Speed 460800; init “ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0” blah.. blah.. blah…

  1. If it's connected, next time you must dial with wvdial huawei
  1. But if it's doesn't connected, do manual.
  1. Firstly, reboot your pc again.
  1. Open terminal, Edit /etc/wvdial.conf –> change your phone dialer.(default number in he220rc2 is *99#)
  1. Before dial, make sure you enter this command:
  • sh /etc/huawei.sh ←- this is for recognise ttyUSB
  • sh /etc/mod.sh ←- this is to configure ttyUSB and connect the modem
  1. Try wvdial huawei again. If fail, open Gnome ppp. Set your dialer, choose ttyUSB0, set username and password. And you'll be connect.

Why it always lost connection

  • Cloudy day or rainy day
  • 3g or hsdpa drop to GPRS shockly
  • Using KPPP on Gnome (thanks to dreamlinux for gnome ppp)
  • You're modified “wvdial huawei” in /etc/wvdial.conf to something like wvdial 3g, wvdial hsdpa etc.
  • Wrong dialer number (default number in he220rc2 is *99#, you should change if your telco use other number such as *99***4# etc)
