Hi,

We just bought a WiFi Pineapple Mark IV and we are not able to configure a ZTE MF110 with Movistar (Spain). We are using version 2.8.1 and this is our information:

lsusb output

Bus 001 Device 005: ID 19d2:0124 ZTE WCDMA Technologies MSM

Switch case

*19d2:0124*)
        echo "ZTE MF110 (Movistar) 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=umts
        uci set network.wan2.device=/dev/ttyUSB1
        uci set network.wan2.apn=movistar.es
        uci set network.wan2.username=MOVISTAR
        uci set network.wan2.password=MOVISTAR
        uci set network.wan2.defaultroute=1
        uci commit network
        # There is no need to use the usb_modeswitch command because the kernel does the switching alone for ZTE USB sticks
        #usb_modeswitch -v 19d2 -p 0124 -V 19d2 -P 0124 -M 5553424312345678000000000000061b000000020000000000000000000000 -n 1 -s 20
        #usb_modeswitch -v 19d2 -p 0124
        sleep 10; rmmod usbserial
        sleep 3; insmod usbserial vendor=0x19d2 product=0x0124
        # Firewall is not needed anymore
        #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

We think that the mode switch is done correctly, because we can see the usb-serial interfaces:

root@Pineapple:~# ls /dev/ttyUSB*
/dev/ttyUSB0  /dev/ttyUSB1  /dev/ttyUSB2  /dev/ttyUSB3  /dev/ttyUSB4  /dev/ttyUSB5

And when executing the comgt it looks like we are registered in the net:

root@Pineapple:~# comgt
Trying list of devices
SIM ready
Waiting for Registration..(120 sec max)
Registered on Home network: "movistar",2
Signal Quality: 23,99

But when booting the pineapple with the "3G bootup" activated, we can see this messages in the logs:

00:01:08 Pineapple user.notice root: 3G: Connection Script here, searching for modems

Ant the connection does not work.

We think that the problem is in the pppd daemon and the "LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests" but we're not sure if we're doing everything OK.

We also tried to modify the switch case and change the

uci set network.wan2.device=/dev/ttyUSB1

To

uci set network.wan2.device=/dev/ttyUSB2

But with no success. Any ideas?

Thank you very much!

Ok, finally found the configuration that works!

First, I had to use the ttyUSB4 interface:

...
uci set network.wan2.device=/dev/ttyUSB4
...

And also had to change the number of the ATD command in /etc/chatscripts/3g.chat (I think that this is related to the 3g operator):

...
OK "ATD*99#"
...
