Using Your Modem for Raspberry Pi or Linux
Connecting your modem on Raspberry Pi or other Linux distributions,
including embedded Linux OS’s such as BusyBox, is controlled by the PPP
dialer command
pppd
. The steps below were tested for Raspberry Pi, and
other versions of Linux should work the same.
1
Plug your modem into an available USB port. Raspberry Pi users may
need to use a USB extender cable to allow access to the other USB
ports.
2
From a terminal window on your Raspberry Pi or Linux computer enter
sudo su
to elevate you to root access.
3
Install the ppp package by entering the following command
apt-get
install ppp
4
Next you will need to create two scripts that pppd will use to create
the connection. You can either create the scripts using an editor such
as
vi
5
The first script should be named zdial. If you downloaded the script,
copy it into /etc/ppp/peers
6
If you are creating the scr. Theipt, put the contents below into the
/etc/ppp/peers directory.
