#title Huawei modem and TMN Portugal

Hi there!

Here I hope to describe how to connect to the TMN network in Portugal using the Huawei modem and Ubuntu Linux.

I took this instructions from here, no credit at all, just posted it here with minor changes and hosting the files: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=391917


First download the files:
|| wget http://student.dei.uc.pt/~jpoa/programs.tar.gz ||


Connect your huawei e220 usb device and wait a few seconds (let's say 10).

Run the program (don't forget to make it executable ; I assume you are in the same directory as the program huaweiAktBbo-i386.out):
|| sudo ./huaweiAktBbo-i386.out ||

If you run this command:
|| ls /dev/ttyUSB* ||

You should get:
|| /dev/ttyUSB0 /dev/ttyUSB1 /dev/ttyUSB2 ||

Then you have to send the PIN to your modem with the program comgt (replace 1234 with your pin) don't use sudo here!
(don't forget to make it executable ; I assume you are in the same directory as the program comgt)
|| echo 1234|./comgt -x -d /dev/ttyUSB0 ||

Open the file /etc/wvdial.conf ( ""gksudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf"" ) and put this and only this inside (make a backup of the old one if you want ( ""sudo cp /etc/wvdial.conf /etc/wvdial.conf_bak"" ) ):
