The Internet Key Onda MW833UP is not recognized in Ubuntu and Ubuntu 10.04.3 10.11 32-bit version.

What is the output of:

lsb_release -a; lsusb

Thanks

At the moment I can not try. I can tell using the live-cd. I am sure that this problem also exists in the system installed on harddisk. I myself found the bug. I hope it can help someone who has this problem.

Hi everyone
I have this problem, too.
If someone is able to explain a good trick to solve it,
I'll will be glad of it

in the last 3 line, I estract the internet key, then riconnect

then there is /dev/ttyACM0 when the key is connected in the usb port, everithing that will meant...

Try:

gksudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/10-hsdpa.rules

add these 2 lines:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="1ee8", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0013",

Hi Gabriele (qui devi scrivere in inglese),

Your ubuntu is an upgrade from a previous version?

I try the MW833UP on two different pc,
one is an upgrade, the other isn't

try to download this packages on 11.10 upgrated:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/usb-modeswitch-data

and

http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/usb-modeswitch

and restart the machine. Then retry the internet key.

then I would ask a favor: you can create a new bug related to the malfunction of the internet key on Ubuntu 32-bit updated 11:10 by specifying the old version? otherwise create confusion because this question is related to another bug.

Gabriele,

what's new?

hi Fidel

I test the key on windows to verificate if the problem was relate on the SO, then the Onda program recognise the key, but not the sim card (but that sim work perfectly on another internet key).
So I guess the problem isn't relate on SO, maybe the sim card or my new key itsef is the cause of this, NOT a Linux bug.

Thanks for asking.

OK. however, it is confirmed that the key internet services does not work for previous versions of Ubuntu 11.10.
