First of all if you have “PIN code request” enabled then you have to disable it (I used my Nokia E90 for that).
Then install usb-modeswitch and wvdial if you haven’t already installed them.
Attach your Nokia CS-15 to your computer USB port and run lsusb (so we can be sure that your computer notice your dongle).
When you run lsusb you should see something like this:
Now you have to run usb_modeswitch command with these parameters:
This will change that 0610 to 0612 and after that command we can run lsusb again and see if that worked and you should see
something like this:
If everything looks ok now we can continue with wvdial.
Edit /etc/wvdial.conf file and make it look like this (Works OK in Finland with DNA):
Modem = /dev/ttyACM0
Init = AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","internet"
Phone = *99#
Stupid Mode = 1
Username = " "
Password = " "
If everything went right you should get connected to internet simply with command wvdial and see something like this:
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60
--> Cannot get information for serial port.
--> Initializing modem.
--> Sending: AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","internet"
AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","internet"
OK
--> Modem initialized.
--> Sending: ATDT*99#
--> Waiting for carrier.
ATDT*99#
CONNECT
--> Carrier detected. Starting PPP immediately.
--> Starting pppd at Wed Jan 20 09:43:23 2010
--> Pid of pppd: 4059
--> Using interface ppp0
--> local IP address 87.95.4.168
--> remote IP address 10.0.0.1
--> primary DNS address 62.241.198.246
--> secondary DNS address 62.241.198.245
And when you disconnect (I did it with ctrl-c:)
--> Terminating on signal 15
--> Connect time 8.4 minutes.
--> Disconnecting at Wed Jan 20 09:51:56 2010

Thanks to anttu-t about that usb_modeswitch command and parameters.
If you are using Ubuntu 10.04 / Lucid Lynx you should first try just:
and then create a new connecting profile (or what ever it’s called).

Now you have to run usb_modeswitch command with these parameters:
En saa parametririviä näkymään, on n. 2mm korkea.
Kerrotko hieman tarkemmin mitä tarkoitat? Onko sivuillani oleva “parametririvi” n. 2mm korkea vai jokin muu?
Oon aika keltanokka näissä asioissa, enkä saa tuon ohjeen mukaista usb_modeswitch komentoa toimimaan. Mitä sen komennon loppuosan punaiset luvut ovat, pitääkö ne syöttää vai?
Jos et ihan välttämättä halua vanhempien Linuxien kanssa touhuta niin suosittelen kokeilemaan Ubuntu 10.10:ä jossa CS-15 toimii huomattavasti helpommin: http://blog.petrilopia.net/software/ubuntu-1010-nokia-cs15/
Tämän esimerkin punaiset luvut (eivät muuten tarkoituksella ole punaisia) täytyy myös syöttää jos usb_modeswitchiä joutuu käyttämään.

Hi all,
I tried under Ubuntu 10.04. The result was that the device did not identify itself as a CD at all! Note that I bought it as a new device from Amazon (direct). I then tried downloading the required “.deb” from the nokia website and installing it with the debian package installer, thinking that all necessary packages would be installed. This failed and it “fragged” my packages to the extent that I could start neither the Synaptic Package Panager nor the Update Manager.Both gave a response of “cannot find the dependent packages”. Swhat now? along the lines of:
Did you check what lsusb said when CS15 was plugged in to your computer?
