Hi Tom, For the record my Huawei E169 with three works a charm on OpenBSD 4.5-beta! Pedro's clue was cryptic but pointed me in the right direction. To connect I type: /usr/sbin/pppd call three For the archives my /etc/ppp/peers/three and /etc/ppp/peers/three.chat files follow - note how the CPIN and CGDCONT fields are commented out. The mysecret for chap-secrets was bizarrely the mobile number .... not the best approach to security.
