a150 Linux, Nokia E71 and Three UK / 3UK Modem via USB

Thanks to everyone who posted relating to connecting a a150 and Nokia mobiles.

Think this is it, please excuse me as I am a Linux novice and lovin it!

Open terminal ALT + F2
su
(password)
sudo yum install gnome-ppp
when this is done
mousepad /etc/wvdial.conf
clear it and paste this

[Dialer defaults]
Phone = *99#
Username = three
Password = three
Stupid Mode = 1
Dial Command = ATDT

[Dialer three]
Modem = /dev/ttyACM0
Baud =466600
Init2 = ATZ
Init3 = ATE0 V1 &D2 &C1 S0=0 +IFC=2,2
ISDN = 0
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Init5 = AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","three.co.uk"

Save it

Launch gnome-ppp (from start menu or by entering gnome-ppp at terminal prompt)


Hit Setup

Hit Init Strings

Networking Tab

Options Tab


Reboot the Netbook
Ensure no applications are accessing the internet on the E71 by holding down the red key.
Connect the E71 via the USB lead, select Nokia PC suite on the mobile screen, launch Gnome-ppp and hit connect.

That's how I did it anyway!

Good luck
Steven

BIG THANKS to you heronlen.
i was looking for this info for long time. its working without problems and its amazing how fast 3g is.
i have pay-as-you-go and internet for £10/month on the go everywhere now!!! you are ACE
Three Mobile Broadband

EDIT: not £10 but only £5 per month

 

No problem! We have 3.5G on Three in some places in Northern Ireland now, it is even better! I now need a way of monitoring data usage on the Aspire

 

This worked perfect for me thank you very much. I used the info for the dual boot Ubuntu 8.10 (using the network connection manager) as well as Linpus on my One.
I have a Nokia n95 so it works well with all the family
