(1) Mount the USB filesystem :
Code: Select all
sudo nano /etc/fstab
Code: Select all
# USB File system (for modem)
none /proc/bus/usb usbfs defaults 0 0
Code: Select all
mount -t usbfs none /proc/bus/usb
Code: Select all
sudo ln -sf /bin/bash /bin/sh
Get the tools for Gutsy or whichever compatible repository version that you will need to compile from http://packages.ubuntu.com :
gcc-4.1-base
gcc-4.1
libc6-dev
libstdc++6
linux-libc-dev
If you have some sort of internet connection just install "build-essential" - but if your reading this you probably have no connection in Linux - so............
Right click the above Deb files you downloaded & select install with GDeb - you may have to fiddle around with the order they install as some depend on the other.
(4) Unpack the ECIADSL source & open a Terminal in the source directory to build & install:
Code: Select all
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install
(5) Probe your USB Modem for the settings needed to configure it:
Code: Select all
sudo eciadsl-probe-device
Code: Select all
sudo eciadsl-config-text
Code: Select all
sudo eciadsl-doctor
Code: Select all
sudo killall eciadsl-doctor
sudo killall eciadsl-pppoeci
sudo killall eciadsl-synch
Once you've configured it start with eciadsl-start instead of eciadsl-doctor
as you don't need the verbose messages.
