  1. Thanks Sebkinne, I canceled my order and was refunded. Do you know of any other online retailer that sells the open source Alfa AP121U? I already have one from the HakShp but now I want to build one as a gift to my friend.

  2. Pimminit, seems like the switching failed when checking #2 configuration. Did you add a 1fac:0150 config file in /etc/usb_modeswitch.d1 directory, then reboot?

    If so, does line #2 in 1fac:0150 read:

    DefaultProduct=0x0150

    With the script I have running now it connects 50% of the time. I'm not sure what you mean about adding a 1fac:0150 config file to the directory. Do I SSH and edit a file or something?

  3. I keep getting this error.

  4. Hey guys I have with me a Virgin Mobile U600 I am trying to make it work with the Pineapple but like most things in life, I am lost. So from the long list of modems on the 3G page I found:

    ######################################################### Franklin Wireless U600DefaultVendor= 0x1facDefaultProduct=0x0150TargetVendor=  0x1facTargetProduct= 0x0151MessageContent="555342431234567824000000800108df200000000000000000000000000000"

    How should I write this in?

    USB Connections::

    Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
    Bus 001 Device 004: ID 1fac:0151

    Mobile Broadband Configuration::

  5. I love dx.com! I have spent thousands of dollars over the past years ordering things I don't need. :)

    I don't bother with defective items like madhak said but I do a live chat to talk with them. So far they just refund me all my money.

    Most recent purchase from them for my pineapple was:

    Dual USB 2.0 Male Ports to 3 USB Female + 1 Mini USB Ports Charging/Data Hub - Black
  6. Hi All,

    I can't seem to find any information on this 3G modem (huawei umg1691). I was given three on them for free while my Pineapple is in the mail. :(

    Anyone have an idea if this will work out of the box just like any generic modem?

    On a side note, I was thinking about using T-Mobile Monthly 4G plan. For $30 a month I can have 100 minutes/unlimited text/unlimited data.

  7. thanks! you saved me! well i should have said what i'm using this for. i live at a bording school and they do computer check while i'm not in the room so i wanted to make a quick cmd script for my roomate to click to delete certain files i dont want to school getting. do you remember the show i'm talking about? its really killing me. i think it might be hak.5 but i cant find the segment in the show notes, and i know it wasn't the broken or system or diggnation.

  8. ok a while back i remember watching a video of some online tech show just like hak.5. i watched an episode where someone wrote up a cmd script that automaticaly deleted your mp3's off the computer. it was around the time the riaa was busting down people, so i guess they thought it was funny to write this scipt and put it on its site in the show notes. i just really need the name of the show or the site or even a script.
