no, but see this link http://forums.techarena.in/vista-har...ces/887351.htm
THX for the information , I realized that E220 is working out of the box. it seems not so many people out there using E169G tho.....just have to keep digging..
My friend just installed on opensuse 10.3 a huawei 3G usb modem (3.5G actually), and just now noticed that opensuse does have a support page.
SDB:HUAWEI E220 Support - openSUSE
It took him a long time but now he found it simple although he did not follow any of the steps in the above howto.
For those who still like to thinker with the prompt here goes an alternative way that I collected from this link:
[3G_Tutorial] Huawei Card E620/E220 - Techzone
In OpenSuSE 10.3 (64 bits) the kernel version supports the device.
It basically says the following:
connect to the usb the device and then make as root
after a couple of seconds a new line appears that corresponds to the modem:Code:lsubs
Bus 004 Device 012: ID 12d1:1003
The ID part is the important one.
now is a good time to for example shutdown ethernet configs ...
make
or whatever your wired/wireless connection requires.Code:ifdown eth0
Now the important:
basically the modem is ready to run.Code:rmmod usb-storage && modprobe usbserial vendor=0x12d1 product=0x1003
I made it run with kppp and my config works for vodafone in Portugal, elsewhere some parameters obviously must change.
It is very simple:
The link above shows the wvdial config and it work ok.
In the connection make a new connection with:
*99***1#
Authentication: PAP/CHAP
- IP : dynamic
- Gateway: default gateway, and check the box :
assign the default route to this gateway
- DNS
Authomatic
check: Disable existing DNS servers
In Kppp modem section make a new modem with
/dev/ttyUSB0
Hardware[CRTSCTS0]
Line termination CR
Connection speed 460800
Check use lock file
- Check wait for dial tone before dialing
busy 0sec
- in modem commands:
if your card requires a PIN then init1 = AT+CPIN=1324 (pin number)
I place one of the clone sim cards I use (one for the Nokia E90 another for the huawei dongle) on the Nokia E90 and removed the PIN protection.
init2 = ATZ
All other parameters in this panel where default.
Before we can dial there was one last problem:
pppd gave an error both on kppp as well as on wvdial
pppd unrecognized option 'passwordfd'
I realized that all peers in /etc/ppp/peers had a call to the plugin passwordfd.so in their files except
/etc/ppp/peers/wvdial
So I edited /etc/ppp/peers/wvdial and placed a new line at the top:
after that both wvdial with the config from the initial link and kppp worked ok !Code:plugin passwordfd.so
And good friends: 3.5G Rocks ... 1.5Mb/s !!!

I have ets1201 huawei FWT. now i need to change its phone no if any one know how to do it
Isnt the HUAWEI ETS1201 FWT is a modem? How will you change its phone number then? And doesnt all this modem come in locked version and even if it is possible to change the phone no. then you will have to unlock it, which can be done at any local mobile repair shop, but that will cost you some money and it is risky as well.
No it can use as a Phone & Modem. I use it as a phone ( Both voice & Fax) now i need to Change one service provider to another one. That why i need to reprogram it.
Example :- If current service provider is "A" Now i need to change Another service Provider called "B".
Well, what i have heard is that if you want to change your service provider of your Huawei 3G modem then you need to unlock your modem. Check the step by step tutorial that is explained in the below links that will let you know how to unlock any Huawei modem for free: http://forums.techarena.in/tips-tweaks/1401188.htm
