Tethering blackberry

nomorewindows · 2014-02-13 11:42:36

I have been able to tether another mobile using wvdial, but blackberry requires barry from AUR to get tethering to work. My init3 line in wvdial is +cgdcont=1,"IP","" (I don't even put anything in there and it seems to work, I haven't given it an official test).

For the blackberry my /etc/ppp/peers/barry-

connect "/usr/bin/chat -f /etc/chatscripts/barry-.chat"
pty "/usr/bin/pppob"

debug

user ""
password ""
defaultroute

ipcp-accept-remote
lcp-echo-interval 0
lcp-echo-failure 999
mtu 1492

For the blackberry my /etc/chatscripts/barry-.chat

It keeps repeating this line over and over:

rcvd [IPCP ConfNak id=0xxx]

until finally

The barry chatscript doesn't have a second init line like in wvdial, but adding it locks it up as far as I can tell.

Try my BlackBerry config.

I can't find the referenced forum items commented in your config files.
Is AIS still required in username/password to get blackberry tethering?
I'm not sure why the parts you have commented in blackberry-modem aren't in your startup script? The only thing that is needed in the startup script would be those parts and the routing fix.
You have defaultroute and noipdefault commented out because you ifconfig <interfaces> down first.
Do you know if novj is still commented out for OS6?
I'm not sure as to stopwirelessblackberry is needed, since ctrl-c should do the same thing, maybe removing your route in this script would do the same thing.
I kept trying to put replacedefaultroute in place of defaultroute, but it goes on the end of defaultroute to call a route like you have in your startup.
This is what this guy tried.
Other than that, it looks like you added a couple of things to your blackberry-modem that I don't have. I'll have to try those when I get the blackberry back to try it again to see if it makes any difference.
Breset and btool -X look like they do the same thing.

I think I will also try berry4all from the AUR as now I can get it to work changing the line in /opt/bbtether/berry4all.sh to python2 (of course, having all of the needed depencies installed) when I get another chance at it.

Replace "AIS" by whatever your ISP wants.

Ok, but mine doesn't require any auth.
