Mungai,
Do what scanModem tells you,
\begin{QUOTE}
The modem is supported by the Smartlink slamr driver
plus the slmodemd helper utility. Read the
Smartlink.txt and Modem/YourSystem.txt for follow
through guidance.
Download slamr-2.6.20-15-generic.tar.gz from
http://linmodems.technion.il/packages/smartlink/Ubuntu/
under Linux, open a terminal and unpack with:
$ tar zxvf slamr*.tar.gz
Move into the unpacked folder
$ cd slamr-2.6.20-15-generic
Look around
$ ls
Run the
$ sudo ./setup
Afterwards do:
$ slmodemd --help
$ slmodemd --countrylist &> Clist.txt
If not in the USA, look for your COUNTRY_NAME
therein.
Do and edit with:
$ sudo gedit /etc/default/sl-modem-daemon
and therein replace the USA in the line:
SLMODEMD_COUNTRY=USA
This will provide for the correct Country setting in
the automated:
slmodemd -c COUNTRY /dev/slamr0
Read the Smartlink.txt and YourSystem.txt
\end{QUOTE}
Getting the slamr driver built for your system will get you online.
Regards,
Antonio
