Raspi on USB Mifi, not wifi - Raspberry Pi Forums


hello everyone,

have e5830s huawei, mifi web interface (gateway) accessible via wifi.
, modem automatically connects internet after have configured gateway. mfi can host 5 wifi clients.
also, when connected win7 pc via usb, barely doesnt need install , configure software setup apn done in gateway, being said that, pc connected mifi via usb automatically connected internet.

when connected raspi, detects hspa modem (w/c can seen in lsusb), guess dont need modeswitch.

below display of lsusb:

bus 001 device 008: id 12d1:1446 huawei technologies co., ltd. e1552/e1800/e173 (hspa modem)

1 thing have noticed models listed usb 3g sticks , not mifi.

btw, directly connect raspi's usb , doesnt need usb power hub because have shorted 2 usb fuses. using thicker wire gauge , using 25a power supply.

have search in forum , found thread:
http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpbb3/viewt ... 8&p=364442

have done guy has done cannot connecto mifi/internet:

questions are:
1. how able know if wwan0 interface created?
2. have edited /etc/network/interfaces , have added wwan0 (changed wlan0 wwan0) still cannot connect internet.
3. have installed network-manager-gnome , added mobile broadband configuration , have chosen correctly country , provider still cannot connect mifi/internet.
4. have tried sakis3g, connection failed, seems try configure that configured (apn) mifi.

doing wrong? suggestions?

you can use command see list of interfaces , ip addresses have etc

code: select all

ifconfig
, can use these commands manually bring or close down interface

code: select all

sudo ifup *interface* sudo ifdown *interface*
first thing check name of interface device appears as. use ifconfig before , after connected usb ports check this.
