Dear All,

 

I've a Huawei E220 connected to a FG40C with FOS5.0

I've tried my best to configure it correctly, but it still wont connect.

 

Diag shows the following: modemd: modem_ppp_stop:483 primary modemd: redails:1  isp:0 dev:/dev/ttyusb1 tel:*99# modemd: Begin dialing: redials left = 1 modemd: dev=/dev/ttyusb1 tel=*99# modemd: modem state changed: 4(hangingup) -> 2(dialing) chat: abort on (BUSY) chat: abort on (NO DIAL TONE) chat: abort on (NO DIALTONE) chat: abort on (NO ANSWER) chat: abort on (ERROR) chat: send (atz^M) chat: expect (OK) chat: atz^M^M chat: OK chat:  -- got it chat: send (ath0^M) chat: abort on (NO CARRIER) chat: expect (OK) chat: ^M chat: ath0^M^M chat: OK chat:  -- got it chat: send (ats7=30^M) chat: timeout set to 30 seconds chat: expect (OK) chat: ^M chat: ats7=30^M^M chat: OK chat:  -- got it chat: send (at+cgdcont=1,"ip","internet.vodafone.net"^M) chat: expect (OK) chat: ^M chat: at+cgdcont=1,"ip","internet.vodafone^M chat: ^BOOT:52394132,0,0,0,6^M chat: .net"^M^M chat: OK chat:  -- got it chat: send (atdt*99#^M) chat: expect (CONNECT) chat: ^M modemd: run_state_machine state 2(dialing) .... modemd: run_state_machine state 2(dialing) chat: atdt*99#^M^M chat: ^BOOT:52394132,0,0,0,6^M chat: alarm chat: Failed modemd: run_state_machine state 2(dialing) modemd: Unable to connect to remote server "*99#"

 

The CONNECT never arrives.

 

All idea is appreciated.

 

TIA

    Qs;

    Are you 100% sure *99# is correct and the APN for vodafone in your area? I've seen *999**1# before and a few others.

     

    What I would do is to pull a mobile partner dialup dialer app & look and conduct  your testing using it. It does a few things for you;

     

    1: ensure that the modem works ( the SIM is enabled for  data )

    2: provide you the correct APN details

    3: and dial#

    4: and possible username/password if applicable

     

    Once you know all of the DETAILs, than you can add that to your profile

    For *999**1# I get:

    chat: send (atdt*999**1#^M) chat: expect (CONNECT) chat: ^M chat: atdt*999**1#^M^M chat: ERROR chat:  -- failed chat: Failed (ERROR)

    *999**1# is definitley not working.

     

    I tried with *99# and *99***1# before, both should work. There is no error, it just wont connect.

    Modem and SIM is working fine in a Windows machine. Common settings (APN is internet.vodafone.net, dial # is *99#, no user and password auth) are already double checked.

    What else could cause this?
