Hello guys.
First of im new to dd-wrt and this forum. I have a new huawei 3g modem labeled 173s-2 which didn't connect out of the box with my also new buffalo WZR-HP-g300nh (r16994). I put the huawei in modem mode with the AT^U2DIAG=0 command but the software still didn't recognize it.
dmesg output:
Code:
<6>[18954.150000] usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using ar71xx-ehci and address 3
<6>[18954.640000] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=12d1, idProduct=1c05
<6>[18954.650000] usb 1-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=2, Product=1, SerialNumber=0
<6>[18954.660000] usb 1-1: Product: HUAWEI Mobile
<6>[18954.660000] usb 1-1: Manufacturer: HUAWEI
<4>[18954.660000] usb 1-1: no configuration chosen from 1 choice
i figured out it didn't "enable" the serial ports.
So i found out on ubuntu forums that there was a change in power output on kernels 2.6.16 and later. the solution to this was the following command:
<6>[ 69.080000] usb 1-1: GSM modem (1-port) converter now attached to ttyUSB0
<6>[ 69.090000] option 1-1:1.1: GSM modem (1-port) converter detected
<6>[ 69.100000] usb 1-1: GSM modem (1-port) converter now attached to ttyUSB1
<6>[ 69.100000] option 1-1:1.2: GSM modem (1-port) converter detected
<6>[ 69.110000] usb 1-1: GSM modem (1-port) converter now attached to ttyUSB2
So now the modem works if i run the commands after i plug the modem in. Now if anyone can tell me how to automate this and put it in a script or something id really appreciate it.
You made my day! Thank you very much for this topic.

There's a few ways to do this. The easy one is adding this code at Administration>Commands. You can paste it in the box and click on "Save Startup".
Of course i did first. I tried every version i could, but the problem remained in every one. This is the only working solution for me.
That id has been supported in the option driver since many month back and has been confirmed working.
It somehow indicates that you have tried really old builds.. _________________ Kernel panic: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!

Hi, i'm sorry, but nothing works for me except xrand tip.
I have a Huawei E173-s1 (not s2 like xrand) and a TP-LINK WR1043ND.
