I'm trying to remotely setup an Orange 3G+ usb modem and am
wondering if we can directly plug it into a pfSense's USB
port and start configuring it? By remotely, I mean rural
Kenya. It came bundled with this Dlink DIR-412 router and
negotiating SSH port-forward through 3 devices(3G modem,
router and pfSense) is making me lose hair.
I am hoping the clouds clear up and the Sun shines through
by allowing the pfsense, Supermicro Atom, to magically see
the modem (after a little dmesg-ing) and allow me to start
configuring it. I can hope, can't I?
Hi Mehma,
You could have taken this first into the Kenyan technical
forum - skunkworks.
Anyway, no problem.
First tell me, which modem is this? ZTE MF192 or the
older one? I cannot remember the model. Having the modem
bundled with DIR-412 means these guys (Orange) already
disabled the virtual CD-ROM, right? That is the only way it
would work with the D-Link DIR-412.
If I can get the AT command string to disable the virtual
CD-ROM, I am pretty sure I can help you with a working
ppp.conf that would make it work with pfSense.
I am in Kenya too.

Washington,

"Internet Everywhere 3G+" and is prepaid weekly unlimited for 990:

Sorry to keep bothering you, I'll send you the exact model number
soon. It's just that you are the only one who knows about this that
I've been able to find.
Mehma
