Re: How to make EDGE USB Modem work in Linux?

In The Name Of Allah The compassionate merciful

Hello ;
Thank you
No that device is supported just needed
[CODE]sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=3D1478 product=3D21[/CODE]

And wvdial can connect to EDGE internet via device

But Network manager cann't and it seems because of that it cann't
detect proper symbolink between ttyUSB0 , ttyUSB1 , ttyUSB2 that are
created by device
One is for internet , another for sms and call , ..

but wvdialconf can detect true one for internet .
