Setting Up the Cards
1.) Here are the steps needed to setup most broadband cards that are available in the Unites States from AT&T, Verizon and Sprint:
2.) Open a terminal session and login as root
Insert the broadband card in your laptop
Wait a few seconds and type dmesg in the terminal session.
Verifying the Card is Detected
1.) The messages below are from a Cingular Option GT Max card - yours should show something different. What we are looking for is if the card gets detected as a USB device or something different and does it load a drivers. Mines loads the Nozomi driver and maps to /dev/noz0. Most other cards map to /dev/ttyUSB0. Check in /dev directory to see if the device gets created.pccard: CardBus card inserted into slot 0
Note: The output should show similar to the below.
Code: | pccard: CardBus card inserted into slot 0
nozomi: module not supported by Novell, setting U taint flag.
