you need to unload the speedtch module. > And when i > re-synchronize modem and try to use PPPD CALL SPEEDTCH again, it tires to > connect and gives up after some time. The previous pppd may still be running - try killing it first. If that doesn't help, send in the contents of the file(s) /proc/net/atm/speed* > I really don't know how to hande > this problem.

Some distributions make the generic firmware loading mechanism complain if a firmware file isn't found (I don't know why - surely it is up to the driver to complain if it is unhappy?) and it seems like yours is one of these.

This means that something unpleasant has happened to your modem. If this is immediately after or before disconnection and doesn't last for long, it is harmless - it just means that the disconnection hadn't yet been reported to the driver yet (so it keeps trying to send packets, but these fail because the modem is not there anymore): it can take a little while (< 1 second though) for the USB core to report disconnections to drivers. As for why it disconnects in the first place, hard to say. Lots of people seem to have this problem, and as you noticed it seems to be related to the kind of motherboard... Maybe the modem is not getting enough power, or the USB cables are too long or passing too close to a source of electromagnetic interference? Try plugging the modem into a different usb port (eg: one on the back of the computer if you were using one on the front before), and try to keep cables away from other cables or possible sources of interference.
