hi folks!

i´m looking for the right setup for my wrt54g3g (kamikaze 7.09 + kernel 2.4) with a novatel XU870 card and t-mobile.

i followed the instructions by http://josefsson.org/grisslan/internet.html but with no success.
in “/etc/modules.d/60-usb-serial† i set usbserial vendor=0x1410 product=0x1430 according my card
my /etc/config/network:
config interface      ppp0
   option ifname     "ppp0"
   option proto        3g
   option device      /dev/usb/tts/0     # but i havn´t seen this device in the /dev-directory. only a "/dev/tts/0"
   option apn          gprsinternet
   option pincode    "xxxx"

when i start ppp0 (ifup ppp0) the blue-led starts flashing and the router isn´t reachable anymore... i have to replug the powercord.

is anyone out there who can help me?

    option vlan1    "0 5"


#### Loopback configuration
config interface loopback
    option ifname    "lo"
    option proto    static
    option ipaddr    127.0.0.1
    option netmask    255.0.0.0


#### LAN configuration
config interface lan
    option type     bridge
    option ifname    "eth0.0"
    option proto    static
    option ipaddr    192.168.1.1
    option netmask    255.255.255.0


#### WAN configuration
#config interface    wan
#    option ifname    "eth0.1"
#    option proto    dhcp

#### 3G/UMTS configuration
#config interface ppp0
config interface wan #if i use umts only
        option ifname   'ppp0'
        option proto    '3g'
        option device   '/dev/usb/tts/0'
        option apn      'volume.d2gprs.de'

Please try.

Also please post output from:

The only things I can think of are the device option in /etc/config/network or you have to provice a username and password for PPP in /etc/ppp/chap-secrets. I didn't found anything else.

The discussion might have continued from here.
