My DSL went down this morning and I needed internet to work. I searched for a config all over but couldn't find exactly what I wanted. After a bit I got mine working fine so I thought I'd post this to help anyone else out there.
I am using a Huawei E1750 on T-Mobile UK running FreeBSD 8.2 amd64. I'm guessing i386 would work the same.
Things to change for others may be device, authname, authkey and the APN which in my case is general.t-mobile.uk
The post which helped me the most was from Greg Lehey that I can't put up since I have not made 5 posts yet
First thing to do of course is: 'kldload u3g' and then plug in the modem.

Background: I have been running Solaris 8 on an Ultra5 with 128MB and 4GB disk for years without upgrade. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
Now my ISP has upgraded their software, and no longer talks to my old (asppp!) software.
Sun no longer ships newer versions of Solaris 8. So I bought Solaris... (1 Reply)
