Rep Power: 2  |  Fedora 9 Connecting Problem with Reliance ZTE MG880 and Huawei EC325 modems I had both ZTE MG880 and Huawei EC325 modems working with Fedora Core 6. Service provider Reliance, India. I just upgraded to Fedora 9. When I try to connect through either modem, it seems the connection is made (Ping) but pppd issues some garbage and Firefox is unable to recognize the connection. The issue seems similar in both cases. Below is some output. ZTE MG880 ATDT#777 CONNECT --> Carrier detected. Starting PPP immediately. --> Starting pppd at Sun May 25 09  04 2008--> Pid of pppd: 6053 --> Using interface ppp0 --> pppd: �}( ؇( --> pppd: �}( ؇( --> pppd: �}( ؇( --> local IP address 220.226.50.155 --> pppd: �}( ؇( --> remote IP address 220.224.135.106 --> pppd: �}( ؇( --> primary DNS address 202.138.103.100 --> pppd: �}( ؇( --> secondary DNS address 202.138.96.2 --> pppd: �}( ؇( Huawei EC325 --> Initializing modem. --> Sending: ATZ ATZ OK --> Sending: AT+CRM=1 AT+CRM=1 OK --> Modem initialized. --> Sending: ATDT#777 --> Waiting for carrier.

Rep Power: 2 | I too had the same issue. It seems to be a problem with fedora's pppd than with the modem as the modem works well with other distro's (Tested it in 2 other distro's debian and ubuntu). Switch to debian or something. It should definitely work. |

Rep Power: 2 | Need it in F9 Thanks for the reply, nm. Well,it did work in FC6. And by the same logic it may not work in future releases of other distros. Though that is not the subject matter of this post. I really need to have it working in F9. I have a number of systems running Fedora here. |

Rep Power: 2 | Try compiling pppd from source and check if it works. Try not to take it from fedora repository. If its a bug in pppd then please file the same. |
