GP Edge on Ubuntu

My congratualtions to Lavluda who followed me to successfully setup “GP” EDGE connection on Ubuntu
here is another blog post published by Lavluda.
here is my steps that lead me to successfully configure EDGE on Ubuntu:

1. first plugin your mobile (in my case i am using Motorola E398)

2. sudo dmesg | grep tty

[4294668.901000] serial8250: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A
[4294668.904000] 00:07: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A
[4300957.868000] cdc_acm 2-1:1.0: ttyACM0: USB ACM device

here “ttyACM0″ is my USB mobile device.
3. sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf

it will create a configuration file template based on my USB Device

4. sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf
5. compare your files and add following changes:

[Dialer Defaults]
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Init3 = AT+CGDCONT=1,”IP”,”gpinternet”
Modem Type = USB Modem
Baud = 460800
New PPPD = yes
Modem = /dev/ttyACM0
ISDN = 0
Phone = *99***1#
Username = xyz
Password = xyz

NOTE: xyz will remain xyz and Phone number will also remain as given above. Replace “/dev/ttyACM0″ with your deivce location
6. sudo ifdown eth0

it will disable your LAN connection

7. finally execute ” sudo wvdial “

8. now you will get lot of output on console… and best wishes for succssfully connection :D

    Thanks a lot,Just for your wonderful help,I am now able to write this on my Ubuntu Machine with the EDGE modem on.

    BTW,my modem was detected as ttyUSB0,and my modem has the capability of 230 kbps,so I used 230400 as Baud
