I found the answer here: http://darkstar-solaris.blogspot.com/2008/10/huawei-e169-usb-umts-gprs-modem.html
"If you have a Multiprocessor-System, then you have to disable all Cores except one. Otherwise the Connection will drop, when you start browsing the Internet with Firefox! host:# psrinfo // returns the cpus host:# psradm -f // this disables the cpu with that number // with psradm -n you can enable the cpu" Therefore in my case: "psradm -f 1 pfexec pppd call gprs debug pfexec cp /etc/ppp/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf pfexec cp /etc/nsswitch.dns /etc/nsswitch.conf " A bit of a pain each time but at least I can use the internet on the bus each day. (1 hour trip) :) If anyone knows an easier way I would love to know. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
