I have on my desk a 791L with the USB cable. And I have a spare
desktop machine here -- in good running order -- with which to
experiment. Finally, I have an IPCop 2.1.8 installation CD.
So I start by:
(1) installing IPCop
(2) turn on the VerizonWireless AirCard 791L
(3) plug the USB cable into one of the USB ports of the new IPCop machine
Installation is successful. Next, I:
(4) remove the installation CD
(5) continue the installation by naming the machine
and then I stall, at the dialog asking configuration type for RED
interface. The options are:
- analog modem
- GSM/3G modem
- ISDN
- PPPoE
- PPTP
- static
- DHCP
What now?
