OpenWrt / Cardbus Support on WRT54G3G

WRT-routern levererades idag. Hade riktig nytta av följande båda inlägg för att E600-kortet skulle fungera med OpenWRT (Whiterussian).

OpenWrt / Cardbus Support on WRT54G3G:

"Hi all,

I have been using RC6 with Option GTmax / T-Mobile Germany (butterfly antenna).
This is what to do:

Code:

# 1. Flash your router with supplied firmware image (RC6)

# 2. Update ipkg and install required packages
ipkg update
ipkg install http://ftp.berlios.de/pub/xwrt/webif_latest_stable.ipk
ipkg install kmod-pcmcia kmod-pcmcia-serial pcmcia-utils kmod-nozomi chat comgt
reboot

# 3. Set your UMTS settings (Example: T-Mobile Germany)
# These values could also set by using x-wrt webif!!!
nvram set wan_proto="wwan"
nvram set wwan_service="umts_first"
nvram set wwan_country="de"
nvram set wwan_apn="internet.t-mobile"
nvram set wwan_username="tm"
nvram set wwan_passwd="tm"
nvram set wan_ifname="ppp0"
nvram set wwan_pincode="****"

# forwarding (see later in thread)
nvram set wan_device='ppp0'
nvram set wan_ifname='ppp0'

nvram commit

# add "noipdefault" to /etc/ppp/options !!"
"Hi, all.

I have been googling but could not solve th issue, so I let this post here. Maybe someone may help...

I do own a novatel merlin u740, and I have installed the RC6 on my WRT54G3G.
Everything went right.
I installed these packages:
kmod-pcmcia_2.4.30-brcm-5_mipsel.ipk
kmod-pcmcia-serial_2.4.30-brcm-5_mipsel.ipk
pcmcia-utils_3.2.8-1_mipsel.ipk
chat_2.4.3-7_mipsel.ipk
comgt_0.3-1_mipsel.ipk
kmod-ohci*.ipk and kmod_usb* (not all)

I have updated the file with
card 'Novatel bla bla u740'
manfid 0x1440, 0x1400
bind 'serial_cs', etc, etc

I can see at the usb 'log' that the card is detected, (and also when i plug for example an usb pen, the pen is detected).

I know some AT commands to 'start' the u740 with, for example hyperterminal from windows.

My (maybe stupid) question, from a noobie is, how do I setup OpenWrt in order to 'allow' connections, since i must use is as a normal serial modem?

thanks in advance"
