@Wesley (and another) You will find 'drivers' dependency culture absent on Linux:-) just type 'wvdial' at terminal or 'sudo apt-get install gnome-ppp' for fancier blinking two-connected computers icons... On an earlier thread I mentioned (on upgrade to Ubuntu 9.04) forced to boot from an older kernel to successfully run " modprobe usbserial vendor=(HEX) product=(HEX) ('HEX' representing wireless usb device's vendor and product hexadecimals). I found a solution on how to load usb device through new 'submodules' way here: <https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+question/65281> (Philip Muskovac said on 2009-04-02:) Please that note: ----- kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.28-11-generic root=UUID=f2441938-7359-49d7-95eb-81f36a166757 ro quiet splash usbserial.vendor=(HEX) usbserial.product=(HEX) --------- is all on one line... (nearly pinched myself when I realised that I had them on separate lines and thus did not work:) That said, you realise mobicos are supplying Windows drivers (firmware) pre-loaded on the devices usb themselves. When plug it in computer reads device as 'mass storage' media. oh no! but not to worry! Have not tried it yet ( time..) but this should work.... <http://forum.linux.or.id/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=19108> oops! dunno those guys language? http://translate.google.com/translate_t?sl=en&tl=es#auto|en| Wesley, any helpful? cheers, On Wed, Jul 8, 2009 at 5:52 PM, wesley kiriinya <kiriinya2000@yahoo.com> wrote:

Wesley I think safcom's (1GB bundle) price(2.50/MB) is second only to telkoms 1/MB. And I have surfed on safcom for 200kbps on ubuntu so.... at the moment, I have these funny feelings for safcon......

and create multi-link PPP. 2 bundled L2TP tunnels from each SIM with IPSec - a perfect VPN solution! Someone should bring in 3G routers with dual sim support, the failsafe mechanism makes the whole setup perfect!, especially once the ofc is up and running.
