How to install LG LSP340e modem in fedora 7
« on: July 07, 2007, 06:44:35 PM »
Hi everyone, I'm new to linux

I have a problem in installing my LG LSP340e tata indicom modem in fedora 7. It is a modem with a serial port connection.

I have a valid IP address, subnet mask address and the DNS server address too, which I got it from Windows XP while browsing the net using the command "ipconfig /all"

I tried to install the modem and when I activated it, it says " cannot connect with error 8".
Then I tried using KPPP, where I queried my modem and it does identify my modem. But when I tried to connect, it was displaying as "identifying modem" and then.."initialising modem" and then it doesnt respond. I mean that the screen was not changing,

I've been using the net with windows and just switched to fedora 7, but cant connect to internet.

Please help me in this issue.

This is what I got the result when I used this command in the terminal...
----------
[root@localhost ~]# wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
Scanning your serial ports for a modem.

WvModem<*1>: Cannot get information for serial port.

ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- failed with 2400 baud, next try: 9600 baud

ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- failed with 9600 baud, next try: 115200 baud

ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- and failed too at 115200, giving up.

ttyS1<Info>: No such device or address
Port Scan<*1>: S1   

ttyS2<Info>: No such device or address
Port Scan<*1>: S2   

ttyS3<Info>: No such device or address
Port Scan<*1>: S3   

Sorry, no modem was detected!  Is it in use by another program?

Did you configure it properly with setserial?

Please read the FAQ at http://open.nit.ca/wvdial/

If you still have problems, send mail to wvdial-list@lists.nit.ca.

What shall I do now? Pleaase help me!!!! :(

Did you set your device's data baud rate to 115200 which has to be done in phone itself ?
Wvdial worked almost in all cases whether its USB or Serial ..
See this post :
http://www.linuxsolved.com/linux-forums/general-networking-support-in-linux/connecting-cdma-tata-indicom-using-serial-cable-for-internet-t2770.0.html
For him, it worked on both USB as well as Serial.

I am afraid then LSP340e is not getting detected by wvdial..
do you have any linux live cd, try that on that..
If still do not works then I must say LSP340e is not going to work as earlier too, few users of lsp340e reported it not working for them.

Well mine was LSP 350T and it worked well under Ubuntu linux.

Now am running Fedora 7, and when I run wvdialconf   /etc/wvdial.conf, it doesn't detect modem on any port and the computer hangs up when it reaches ttyS2 and is at 115200 baud rate.

What could I do? I can't use my HSP56 Micromodem 688T, either. No one seems to have written a driver for it yet, (slamr.ko), exactly to match my kernel.. (2.6.20-2925.9.fc7xen, if I remember right!) There is another kernel too in my own machine under same fedora 7, that is 2.6.20-1.3194.fc7 (?)
