Re: How to get Bell Canada 3G USB network up?



Following up to myself again, in the meantime I think I've narrowed
down the problem with my disconnects a bit:

It seems that I'm loosing connection whenever the stick changes
connection mode, or at least when it changes from UMTS to HSPA or
HSUPA. Meaning, it connects with UMTS and I'm getting internet access
until it changes ~30 seconds later to one of the latter, then the
internet connection is broken, disconnecting and reconnecting with the
network manager applet won't work, I have to unplug and replug the
stick for another attempt. Seems only if I'm lucky and it decides to
stay on UMTS that I'm getting continuous internet access. This seems
consistent with my observation that I'm often not having any problem
at all in remote areas, whereas in the city core it's worst (meaning,
in areas that only have UMTS access points there is no problem at
all).

Thanks for any ideas on how to solve this (I'll take that to the
network manager developers, too--but then, maybe I'll have a phone
connetion up and running before that and drop it).

Christian.
