CR-48 3G working with custom bios install Ubuntu

All credit for this info goes to other sources, as normal. Posting here in order to spare my bookmark clutter, ie, personal use.

1. Grab the files here: QC Serial USB Drivers (cros – source) and here: qc.tar.gz – Linux (x86) binaries
2. Extract the first – qcserialusb.tar.gz (wherever) and get to a bash terminal in that location.
3. Run ./installthreeg.sh
4. Run (as root) modprobe QCSerial2k and then modprobe QCUSBNet2k and ensure no errors appear.
5. Extract the second, qc.tar.gz to /opt.
6. Run ./startthreeg.sh (from a bash terminal or by double clicking it).
7. Create a new connection using the network manager panel app, of the mobile broadband flavor. Enter #777 for the number.
8. Connect, browse, etc.

  1. Clayton, for the life of me I can't remember how to have the startthreeg file run as root, which is making my ease of use alot harder. I am currently working on a way to do this. On another note, I too am in Dothan, Alabama. email me sometime dempsey.vick@gmail.com
