[-- Attachment #1 --] Minor patch for ppp.conf below. This makes the out of the box u3g(4) config/command referred to from its manpage a lot more usable out of the box. Especially now that virtually everyone uses “internet” as the APN and Usernames/passwords are no longer required. I would not mind some advice on the speed setting - as obviously the card can handle a much higher baudrate; but AFAIK these cannot be set from ppp. With kind regards, Dw. *** ppp.conf.orig Wed Aug 14 21:03:58 2024 --- ppp.conf Wed Aug 14 21:09:40 2024 *************** *** 36,43 **** --- 36,61 ---- add default HISADDR # Add a (sticky) default route u3g: + # Configuration for the u3g(4) 3G and 4G datacards setup. + # + # Fill out the APN in below (often 'internet').
