[Voyage-linux] Connectivity through a 3G USB modem

[Beat Meier]

Ok nevertheless I put you my files I've found

I did the following on my alix board with voyage-0.5.2:
   /etc/ppp/peers/3g_telecom
   /etc/chatscripts/3g_telecom
which was for an E160 modem and
   /etc/ppp/peers/3g_movistar
   /etc/chatscripts/3g_movistar
   /etc/usb_modeswitch.d/19d2:2000
which I think was the ZTE MF110
and generall stuff
   /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/setup_3g
    (/etc/ppp/ip-down.d/clean_3g not provided)

The modem ZTE MF110 (I think it was this model...) I started
  usb_modeswitch -c /etc/usb_modeswitch.d/19d2:2000
   /sbin/modprobe usbserial vendor=0x19d2 product=0x0031
   pon 3g_movistar
at least found a note about that

An entry in /etc/network/interface like

###################################
auto 3g_telecom
iface 3g_telecom inet ppp
         provider 3g_telecom
         address 200.200.200.123
         netmask 255.255.255.0
# please do not modify the following line
         pre-up /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up
###################################
will start modem automatically at startup, where address is not imported 
because received and set from pppd
This was for the E160. I cannot test anymore because have not anymore 
access for this devices ...

Maybe it helps

Greetings

Beat
