I have compiled my log of how I got it working. Very similar to other cards, the only magic was finding the username and combining notes from other cards. This is the first REV A EVDO card in Linux that I know of. It still requires a one time activation in a windows computer.

Greetings,

Since I obviously could not access the comment section on Sagrad.Inc I wanted to post a lil something here.

Thanks for this btw.. its awesome!

Secondly..

I was able to get everything working the way you described. It dials up.. I get the IP address and everything but I still can not connect to the net.

Here is what I got when I did this "tail -f /var/log/messages"
