One of my students brought a BSNL WLL phone saying that it is not getting recognized on Ubuntu 8.04. The model of the phone was HTL Clarity ( I suspect it to be some Chinese phone). I plugged it into my ubuntu system and fonund out the usb id via the lsusb command. The id was 0x15eb:0x0001. This is what I did to get it working on Ubuntu 8.04.
a) Load the usb serial driver wiith the usb id parameters.
# /sbin/modprobe usbserial vendor=0x15eb product=0x0001
b) Load the ppp drive
# /sbin/modprobe ppp_generic
c) Check the dmesg output
#dmesg |tail
[ 227.271459] /build/buildd/linux-2.6.24/drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial support registered for generic
[ 227.271485] usbserial_generic 2-1:1.0: generic converter detected

[ 276.412779] PPP generic driver version 2.4.2
d) run wvdialconf
#wvdialconf
This will create a skeleton of /etc/wvdial.conf.
e) Edit the /etc/wvidal.conf so that it looks like the following
[Dialer Defaults]
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Init3 = at+crm=1;+cmux=1;+cps=33;+cta=0
Modem Type = Analog Modem
ISDN = 0
Phone = #777
Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
Username = #######
Password = ####
Baud = 460800
Stupid Mode = 1
Auto DNS
Check Def Route
I have put # in the place of username and password inthe listing above. Generally, the username will be the phone number. If your phone no is 0471223344 putusername as 471223344 and the password as 3344 ( the last four digits of phone number).
f) Run wvdial to connect to Internet. Use Ctrl+C to colse the connection.
Sir,
I have made an executable for the above mentioned phone…
just plugin your usb run this executable…you will be asked for the username and password, enter it … and surf the internet…
You can find more details at http://linuxandmicrocontrollertips.blogspot.com/2008/10/easy-way-to-access-internet-through.html
I had a problem with the download link…I have fixed the error…actually the previous link works for me at home…

Dear,
I have phone haier D1200 & after check with lsusb -> 15eb:0001
is this same with your hardware?
I’d try your tutorial but it’s only work on linux after queried it on winxp, please help me?
thanks,
ucul
I do follow he steps vis-a-vis but I don’t get any of these following lines.
[ 227.271485] usbserial_generic 2-1:1.0: generic converter detected
[ 227.271616] usb 2-1: generic converter now attached to ttyUSB0
[ 227.271627] usbserial_generic 2-1:1.1: generic converter detected
[ 227.271687] usb 2-1: generic converter now attached to ttyUSB1
so I can’t determine what tty device to configure.
Lines of relevance in my dmesg after loading both 15eb:0001 and ppp drivers are : –
PPP generic driver version 2.4.2
drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c: USB Serial support registered for generic
usbcore: registered new driver usbserial_generic
I grepped for a lot of keywords that I seen in the output that you get. I am using the Clarity 11A BSNL WLL modem. Could you please help me understand what I am doing wrong.
and yes, the modem is ‘plugged’ in. 🙂
have a nice day.
Hi
See this
[ 227.271616] usb 2-1: generic converter now attached to ttyUSB0
This seems to be you modem.
In wvdial.conf
Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
Please let me know what you get when you run wvdial
things started working…missed a very important part that is switching the modem off and plugging it in after unplugging and then turning it on. the usb device turns on first and then you turn on the phone manually.
flaky line though 😛
Hi..Im using BSNL WLL (HTL Clarity) phone ,
from the lsusb command I got the USB id as 0×15eb:0×0001
but when I enter the command “/sbin/modprobe usbserial vendor=0×15eb product=0×0001″
I get ” FATAL: Usb serial not found” (I dont remember the correct error statement)….any way something close to that..
Ive tried the executable file by Dipin Krishna..(Great job by him to make the task very simple :)) but after I enter my username and password again they show the same error..
Pls help me :O
