HP hs2340 HSPA+ MobileBroadband modem with openSUSE 11.4

**Wolfblitz** · 07-Jul-2011, 04:40

I would like to know if anybody knows how or had some success with setting up this modem on openSUSE 11.4?

Here are the specifics:

OS: openSUSE 11.4 64-bit with latest updates

Laptop: HP EliteBook 8560p
Modem: HP hs2340 HSPA+ MobileBroadband

Output from dmesg:

Code:

I have tried setting it up as an ordinary modem wit AT commands but this also failed.

Code:

DIALCOMMAND='ATDT'
DIALPREFIX=''

INIT1='AT&F'
INIT2='ATE1'
INIT3='AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","Internet"'
INIT8='ATM1'
INIT9='ATX3'
MODEM_DEVICE='/dev/ttyACM0'
NAME='HP hs2340 HSPA+ MobileBroadband'
PPPD_OPTIONS=''
PROVIDER='provider0'
SPEED='115200'
STARTMODE='auto'
UDI=''
USERCONTROL='yes'

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hello

I had a similar problem with a mobile broadband device. I solved my problem searching hard for internet. Please find below one of my first post in this forum:

Difficulties in using 3G Orange Broadband Modem Icon 225 with Opensuse 11.3

Please tell me if you found the right solution.

FWIW, I have a HP Compaq 6710b (work laptop), which has a similar hs2300 mobile broadband device.

Code:

[    1.595394] usb 3-1: Product: HP Integrated Module
[    1.953614] usb 4-1: Product: HP hs2300 HSDPA Broadband Wireless Module
[    1.953616] usb 4-1: Manufacturer: HP

Code:

Bus 003 Device 002: ID 03f0:171d Hewlett-Packard Wireless (Bluetooth + WLAN) Interface [Integrated Module]

I'm running openSUSE 11.3, KDE4.6.5 and connect via the network management plasmoid without any issue. I would be surprised if your device wasn't handled similarly. Have you tried configuring via NM?

Another common approach is to detect hardware modems via 'wvdialconf'. Does 'sudo wvdialconf' detect it ok?

**Wolfblitz** · 11-Jul-2011, 09:35

Thanks for the help so far

@Fabrizio
Thanks for the advice but unfortunately it did not work.

@deano_ferrari
The problem is that Network Manager sees the modem but you can't do anything with it.
It only allows you to configure it but doesn't allow you to use it in any way.
wvdial the same thing.
I also tried qinternet and the same thing happens.

Knowing that HP re-brands the hardware ID's to their own I decided to dismantle the laptop and see what's really in there.
It turned out to be a Ericsson F5521gw WCDMA modem

http://www.aether.com.tw/download/WW-ME5521-G%20T.pdf
Nice modem, but only if it works.

Found this bit of info though
Bug#631278: modemmanager: /lib/udev/rules.d/77-mm-ericsson-mbm.rules needs update for HP hs2340 HSPA+ MobileBroadband, help, FAQ, forums, question, answer, advice, opinion and howto for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X

Code:

#HP hs2340 HSPA+ MobileBroadband
#03f0:3a1d Hewlett-Packard
ATTRS{idVendor}=="03f0", ATTRS{idProduct}=="3a1d",ENV{ID_MM_ERICSSON_MBM}="1

By adding that to the /lib/udev/rules.d/77-mm-ericsson-mbm.rules it at least now loads the correct modules but it still fails to connect.

Upon further inspection it seems that there is something funny about the way it reads and responds to the AT commands.
I also noticed that the module is only fully supported in a later version of the kernel.

SourceForge.net: MBM - mbm

Since my kernel is 2.6.37 I will require a kernel that is outside of the standard openSUSE 11.4 OSS repository.

Going to try that now. Will let you know if I ruined my OS or not. Hopefully the latter.
Considering all of this and the other hardware problems it might also be worth considering moving to Tumbleweed.

**Wolfblitz** · 16-Aug-2011, 04:40

Ok, it's been a long time since there were any replies or updates to this thread but I finally managed ta make it work, sort of.

I reinstalled my system and then upgraded to Tumbleweed.
What a world of difference that made. Most of my hardware problems went out the window.

Ok so here is the breakdown:

With this in the 77-mm-ericsson-mbm.rules (not sure if it is needed)

Code:

ATTRS{idVendor}=="03f0", ATTRS{idProduct}=="3a1d",ENV{ID_MM_ERICSSON_MBM}="1

Then follow this guide

It worked, I connected and everything except for resolv.conf was fine.
Hardware working 100%

Now the only thing that remains is to get it to work through NetworkManager.

**Wolfblitz** · 16-Aug-2011, 06:36

Ok, NetworkManager seems to work. More testing needed.

After your hardware is working make sure you have

mobile-broadband-provider-info

installed.

How to get it to work in NetworkManager:

Delete all of the existing Mobile Broadband connections.
Add a new Mobile Broadband connection
Select built-in or HP hs2340 HSPA+
Select your Country
Select your Provider
Select your APN

That should do it.

Run ifconfig, route and cat /etc/resolv.conf and everything should be updated.

The downside to it is that I cannot find an easy way to disable WWAN like the wireless.

The NetworkManager.state file seems to hint at the possibility of this though.

Code:

cat /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state

[main]
NetworkingEnabled=true
WirelessEnabled=false
WWANEnabled=true

Use rfkill to do that. It should be installed already, but if not

Code:

zypper in rfkill

To list your wireless interfaces (from a root console)

Code:

rfkill list

You'll see whether 'hp-wwan' is soft-blocked for example. (If it's hard-blocked then there will probably be a switch to turn on).

To enable interface '2' for example

Code:
