In The Name Of Allah The compassionate merciful Good day all ; Have a EDGE USB Modem and want to connect internet with it . It has a drive that contain a driver and windows users install it and go .. Someone told me use usb_modeswitch : > mode switching data for usb-modeswitch > > Several new USB devices have their proprietary Windows drivers onboard, > especially WAN dongles. When plugged in for the first time, they act > like a flash storage and start installing the driver from there. If > the driver is already installed, the storage device vanishes and > a new device, such as an USB modem, shows up. This is called the > "ZeroCD" feature. > > On Debian, this is not needed, since the driver is included as a > Linux kernel module, such as "usbserial". However, the device still > shows up as "usb-storage" by default. usb-modeswitch solves that > issue by sending the command which actually performs the switching > of the device from "usb-storage" to "usbserial". Now , don't know how to use usb_modeswitch ? have read man and did so > sudo usb_modeswitch -v 05c6 -p 0015 but result says # Warning: no switching method given.
