MISC: SMARTFREN HAIER CE682 MODEM SETTING IN UBUNTU


I 've read many blogs for a week, to find a way so my Ubuntu would be able detecting my friend's modem (Haier CE682 from Smartfren - Indonesia). It (still) didn't work for me. Until I 've tried this way (on my netbook and my friend's PC, with Ubuntu 10.04, 11.04 and 12.04) :
  • Assume, we have downloaded wvdial.
  • From Terminal (console) type : lsusb
    find the location of your modem (example: 201e:1022)
  • From Terminal (console) type: sudo gedit /etc/modules
  • Add this script to that file:
    usbserial vendor=0x201e product=0x1022
  • Save and close that file.

  • type : sudo gedit /etc/usb_modeswitch.conf
  • Add this script:
    DefaultVendor = 0x201e
    DefaultProduct = 0×1022
    TargetVendor = 0x201e
    TargetProduct = 0×1022
    MessageContent=”5553424312345678c00000008000069f030000000000000000000000000000″

  • Save and close that file.

  • type : sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/99-haier-ce682.rules
  • Add this script:
    SUBSYSTEM==”usb”, SYSFS{idVendor}==”201e”,
    SYSFS{idProduct}==”1022″, RUN+=”/usr/sbin/usb_modeswitch --default-vendor 0x201e --default-product 0×1022 --message-content 5553424312345678c00000008000069f030000000000000000000000000000″
  • Save and close that file.

  • type : sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf
  • Add this script:
    [Dialer smart]
    Init1 = ATZ
    Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
    Stupid Mode = 1
    Modem Type = Analog Modem
    Command Line = ATDT
    ISDN = 0
    New PPPD = yes
    Phone = #777
    Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
    Username = smart
    Password = smart
    Baud = 460800
  • Save and close that file.
  • May be we have to change a ttyUSB0 to another (ttyUSB1, etc), if needed. To find a modem location try : sudo /etc/wvdialconf

  • Plug a modem
    the modem lamp will on, but not blinking. We should plug a modem before a computer being on.
  • Shutdown Ubuntu, and restart.

  • type : sudo eject /dev/sr1 (if doesn't have CD-ROM type sudo eject /dev/sr0)
    The modem lamp will blinking slowly. It had not been detected as modem yet.
  • Restart computer (do not shutdown) and do not unplug the modem.

  • The modem lamp will blinking fast, it should be a modem mode.
  • From Terminal (console) type : sudo wvdial smart
  • Open the browser, I hope it work.
