Our provider is switching cell cards on me (again) and this time its not
a standard PCMCIA to USB serial interface.
This card requires a special driver, and I found nozomi.
The driver allows communication to the card ok. The problem I am having
is a proper response from Cingular.
After CHAP succeeds, pppd sends a request for a local IP and DNS
servers. Cingular sends back ONLY the DNS servers, and NOT my IP. :(
I have tried a variety of settings in the ifcfg file to no effect. Here
is what is there now:
-> cat ifcfg-cingular
# Please read /usr/share/doc/initscripts-*/sysconfig.txt
# for the documentation of these parameters.
