Hi all,

I'm trying to install a UMTS pcmcia card on my ArchLinux platform.
Unfortunately I'm not having luck with it ...

The card is called Option Fusion+ which support GSM/GPRS/EDGE/UMTS/HSDPA/WI-FI

Is there someone who can give me some hints on using this card?

Re: Umts

please insert the card , then type dmesg and post the last lines of the output (10-20 lines should be enough).

That should tell us if the card is recognized correctly.

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

(A works at time B)  && (time C > time B ) ≠  (A works at time C)

Re: Umts

try this 2 packages found in AUR

aur/nozomi 2.21alpha-3
    A driver for Option 3G (UMTS-HDSPA) cards
aur/umtsmon 0.3-3
    A tool to manage your 3G card (send sms, modify pin, monitor traffic)
