I can't get the mobile Internet connection using a dongle.
Hi
My computer is a 64 bit one and it has AMD processor.
I installed Fedora Core and tried in vain to configure the dongle given by 3.
I mean to get mobile internet to my desktop computer. I bought the dongle from 3. I know the company 3 is in many European countries.
The installation was fine. There were no error messages.
[A] There is a network icon. You will find this icon on Fedora Core system. It says mobile broadband disconnected.
Furthermore it says ' Provider 3'. [THIS IS CORRECT.]
There is an IMEI number too: 353147041713472
[B] There is a network icon for wired broadband. You will find this icon on Fedora Core system. It says cable unplugged. [THIS IS CORRECT BECAUSE I REMOVED THE CABLE OF MY REGUALAR BROADBAND AS I AM TRYING TO CONNECT TO THE DONGLE GIVEN BY 3.]
There is an icon named 'network settings'
It has 3 items.
1. Wired
2. Mobile broadband
3. Proxy
I double clicked the item 'Mobile broadband' . The message was disconnected.
Then I double clicked the item 'Wired' and got the message [B] which was cable unplugged
After about 24 hours I tried again. It correctly asked the 4 figure password given by 3. I got the following message when I double clicked the network icon Activation of network connection failed.
What is the problem? The installation was fine; however, network connection is not there.
