I am powering a memory stick, wifi adapter, and 3G modem from a hub powered on a 5v 2.1A battery supply. Pending on what your hooking into the hub, you should be alight. Regarding your second question, if the hub is already a powered via external 5v source, you shouldnt need to splice anything. The case in which this needs to be done is if you can converting a non-powered hub to a powered hub.

I hear ya pimmpinit, I'm on week 2. I never dealt with serial components on *nix The APN I got from your post, username I got after I activated the modem on windows (see screenshot), the password I have no idea... I am guessing it is null value. I hope someone familiar with installing generic usb modem drivers can steer us as in the right direction cu I'm totally taking shots in the dark here.

Hello people, I am trying to get the lovely Franklin U600 (Virgin Mobile USA) connected to the fruit. It supports 4G WiMax as well, but I am trying to get the 3G lit first. The modem has been activated (CD-ROM files are on the modem storage). When I run /pineapple/3g ./3g.sh script, i get the following: I am using these settings to activate the modem echo $MODEM case "$MODEM" in *1fac:0150* | *1fac:0151*) echo "Franklin Wireless U600 (Virgin Mobile) detected. Attempting mode switch" uci delete network.wan2 uci set network.wan2=interface uci set network.wan2.ifname=ppp0 uci set network.wan2.proto=3g uci set network.wan2.service=cdma uci set network.wan2.device=/dev/ttyUSB0 uci set network.wan2.apn=ggsnint.nexteldata.com uci set network.wan2.username=xxxxxxx@modem.vmobl.com uci set network.wan2.password= uci set network.wan2.defaultroute=1 uci set network.wan2.ppp_redial=persist uci set network.wan2.peerdns=0 uci set network.wan2.dns=8.8.8.8 uci set network.wan2.keepalive=1 uci set network.wan2.pppd_options=debug uci set network.wan2.pppd_options=noauth uci commit network usb_modeswitch -v 1fac -p 5031 -V 1fac -P 0150 -M 555342431234567824000000800108df200000000000000000000000000000 -n 1 -s 20 sleep 10; rmmod usbserial sleep 3; insmod usbserial vendor=0x1fac product=0x0150 sleep 5; /etc/init.d/firewall disable; /etc/init.d/firewall stop logger "3G: firewall stopped" iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 172.16.42.0/24 -o 3g-wan2 -j MASQUERADE iptables -A FORWARD -s 172.16.42.0/24 -o 3g-wan2 -j ACCEPT iptables -A FORWARD -d 172.16.42.0/24 -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -i 3g-wan2 -j ACCEPT ;; When I execute lsusb, the modem name still doesnt appear. When I execute ls /dev/ttyUSB* I keep getting ls: /dev/ttyUSB*: No such file or directory ...and of course I do not see 3g-wan2 I did replace references of 1fac:0150 to 1fac:0151 to get the mode switch to fire. Not sure what to do next, please hak ppl help!

your right...all i could find was this. <apn name="Virgin Mobile" numeric="31000" mcc="310" mnc="00" apn="Sprint" user="Sprint" server="*" password="*" proxy="null" port="null" mmsproxy="205.239.233.136" type="null" ... </apn>

Generic Virgin settings: <apn type="mms" apn="0" mnc="490" mcc="311" carrier="Virgin Mobile US" mmsport="81" mmsproxy="205.239.233.136" mmsc="http://mmsc.vmobl.com:8088/mms?" port=""/>

The U600 I got is from virgin mobile running on sprint network. Did you run that bash script yet pimmpinit? I am curious how it went.
