Hi
Got a new simultaneous dual band Belkin N 600 HD for doing only this . That is connect the EVDO usb modem on the usb modem and have a dual band WIFI with it . I dont have ADSL broadband and this is my primary connection .
I have shibby latest tomato on it that is tomato-K26USB-1.28.RT-MIPSR2-100-Nocat-VPN . Every thing is working on the router as it should be
I have done tinkering with with 3 modem
Sierra Wireless 595U EVDO modem
ZTE AC 30 ( EVDO and GSM modem MIFI )
Huawei E1731 3G GSM modem .
I am trying to connect EVDO modem Sierra Wireless 595U and use the 3G .
I have put WAN to 3G ,Modem recognized at ttyUSB0 , init string #777 . When i connect it is hung on connecting and not connected . Sierra module is getting loaded as per log . It seems it is looking for a 3G GSM modem where as i am trying to connect with an EVDO modem Sierra Wireless 595U or modem switch is not working correctly
Relevant log
Dmesg
Tried another thing
In modem profile i configured it to auto dial whenever connected to a usb port . When connected the modem LED blinks thus showing connected and while during disconnected LED is stable green . After connecting it to router usb port it blinks for 5 seconds than again stable for 10 seconds and again blinks . So modem is auto dialling but router is disconnecting the connection . Now how to ensure that this autodial is transferred to WAN and in WAN which setting to use ? . It cannot be 3G modem as there is no dialling . I tried it in DHCP but that didnt work out also . So there are 2 issues now
first using 3G modem in WAN it loads the driver then says 3G modem not available
or
When modem auto dials how to configure WAN to enable internet through LAN and wireless .
I have disabled WAN , the LED blinking is more than non blinking . Its continuously trying to connect (modem is in auto dial ) . I have tried to ping google when blinking is on but its time out
seems need to switch modem correctly like here Current USB 3G modem support? | Page 2 | LinksysInfo.org
but how ?
End of trials with Sieraa 595U
Now with ZTE AC30
I based my tries on shibby post here
http://www.linksysinfo.org/index.php?threads/current-usb-3g-modem-support.35574/page-2#post-177047
Modem switching works fine
the command
usb_modeswitch -v 0x19d2 -p 0x0144 -V 0x19d2 -P 0x1519 -M "5553424312345678000000000000061e000000000000000000000000000000"
works correctly with log
I have made the file zte in tmp and added the lines after changing my product id . WAN set to DHCP . When i run
usb_modeswitch -c /tmp/zte error is
Mode switching failed
log is
Please advise how to switch it correctly
lsusb is
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 19d2:0144
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002
Another funny thing ZTE AC30 changed 3 product id with mode switch command . I had to do lsusb each time .
End of ZTE AC30
Tried with a Huawei E1731 3G GSM card it work beautifully no issues , simple apn settings and its connected . tried with a powered usb hub and it still works connected immediately with the exception that auto dial didnt take place and i had to manually connect it . Once connected no issues . So build is correct , only issues with EVDO and how to switch modem or dial it . Also tried with Ekos latest ddwrt but it still doesnt work ans came back to shibby
If someone could guide as how to get this EVDO functioning on Sierra 595U . ZTE AC 30 is second priority
