broadband on celcom3g

heya...its been a while.but just before this i tried to create a new blogspot.luckily i was too lazy to create another gmail accout...so i tried to create a new one using my current gmail accout.and i was directed to here....hehe

so last week i ( together with ina) went to buy ourself a mobile broadband.we chose celcom of course.luckily mines ada one celcom dearler.it cost me RM 393 ( celcom postpaid + modem ).kira okla kan...mobility sake.

then only after almost 2 days, i realized im using ubuntu.it took like 24-48 hours for the sim to be activated.JIT.so i spose huawei dont have the plug and play feature for ubuntu or for any other linux distribution.

at first attempt, i was googling at all the wrong places.then i got it the config for celcom3g huawei.
open your terminal and got to /etc/wvdial.conf and put this there

[Dialer celcom3g]

Phone = *99***1#
Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
Username = user
Password = pass
ISDN = 0
New PPPD = yes
Baud = 1843200
Init2 = ATZ
Init3 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Modem Type = Analog Modem

save and close the editor

whenever u wish to connect to ur broadband, simply type

sudo wvdial celcom3g

you are connected when the u see your ip is given on the console.and you may start surfing!

and to disconnect to the broadband, just ctrl-C...and ure free to go...

Now i can surf anywhere...balik kampong? no hal punya...anytime....ahhaah
