 |
Hi All,
As the subject line states, I'm trying to get my 1043NDv3 (v3.0-r34777) to use the Huawei 8372 (4G usb dongle) as a modem.
I've read a heap of threads and found most of them less than useless. The general wiki is that out of date, I don't know where to start.
Some say, try a Kong build, but from my reading the 1043ND3 isn't supported....

The closest I've got is reading this thread:
https://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=707000
No love here:
https://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=981336#981336
or here:
https://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=734096
but I don't know what commands to execute to get the results that are shown; so I don't know where to start...
This thread isn't much help either:
https://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=729092
I'm running a Win10 laptop (no other choice of machine in the area so please don't suggest I use a Ubuntu box for debugging as that won't work).
This is some of the output that I have thus far:

I'm not really sure what to do or where to go from here. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

here are all the steps:
first flash your device to r33679
important: if you are downgrading from on a newer release, reset to factory defaults and re-setup your basic LAN setup.
mbb setup via web ui:
Services / Services / System Log
enable Syslogd
enable Klogd
Services / Services / WAN Traffic Counter
enable ttraff Daemon
[Save]
Services / USB / USB Support
enable Core USB Support
enable USB Storage Support
[Save]
Setup / Basic Setup / WAN Connection Type
Connection Type "Mobile Broadband"
Dial String "*99# ..."
APN "from your operator"
PIN "USIM PIN"
Connection Type "Auto ..."
disable Force Reconnect
[Save]
Setup / Administration / Management
[Reboot Router]
Connect your USB Modem and check the logs via
Status / Syslog
OR
ssh tail -f /var/log/messages
usefull debug output
copy / paste carefully as single line and run from web gui / Administraton / Commands [Run Commands]
| Code: | | cd /tmp; uname -a; nvram get DD_BOARD; nvram get os_version; lsusb; for i in usb_modeswitch.conf comgt-netmode.out comgt.out ppp/options.pppoe .ipt .rule; do echo; echo ---- \${i}; echo; cat \${i}; done; |
Please check your output before you post it. It might contain your IP and sensitive information, you don't want to publish.
nvram commands are in my mbb inventory thread
if mbb connection was successfull, you should see a WAN IP and a time top right side of web gui
