If your Linux doesn't have that, and you can't download it, then you will need to create a dialer configuration file. In recent versions of Ubuntu, there is a wireless applet in which you can set all the configuration.

It probably works when rebooting from Windows into Linux because the device doesn't power down in this case, and so the connection session is already authenticated fro Windows. Sounds like you don't have the PIN number configured in Linux.

I was using Linux Mint 7 which I upgraded to version 9 today to see if that would fix the problem but it made no difference.īasically it seems the only time I can connect to the net in linux is if I use the modem in windows and then restart straight into linux, in that case it sometimes gets recognised and works.

I am having desperate problems trying to connect to the net with a Huawei E173 USB modem.
