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?
- Insert huawei E220 modem –> boot pc –>wait for a minute –> open terminal
- cd to the installer –> key in make –> read it
- 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…
- If it's connected, next time you must dial with wvdial huawei
- But if it's doesn't connected, do manual.
- Firstly, reboot your pc again.
- Open terminal, Edit /etc/wvdial.conf –> change your phone dialer.(default number in he220rc2 is *99#)
- 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
- 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)
