Setting up GPRS on the Zaurus


I have a Sl-5600 Zaurus, I use the Sharp ROM with Opie apps. This is how I set up a GPRS with Orange connection via the Bluetooth adapter.

If you have a Nokia n70 then you'll need to ensure your Zaurus is set up to use rfcomm Channel 3.

Goto Settings -> Network and fill in the following.

Account

Name:GPRS (Bluetooth)
Username:ip
Password:orange
Phone:*99***1#

Network

Auto-detect name servers (ticked)

Modem

Init commands: ate 1 AT+CGDCONT=1,\"IP\",\"orangeinternet\"
Speed: 115200
Flow Control: Hardware flow control (ticked)
Wait time: 1 sec

Proxy

Proxy: No Proxy

/etc/ppp

You'll then possiby need to modify some files in /etc/ppp to reflect the port of the modem etc, for example: # cd /etc/ppp/peers/ # ls -ltr -rw-r--r-- 1 zaurus qpe 268 Jan 22 2004 DialupModem1073051742 -rw-r--r-- 1 zaurus qpe 237 Jan 22 2004 DialupIrDA1070478690 -rw-r--r-- 1 zaurus qpe 297 Jun 24 23:15 GPRSInfrared1088111425 -rw-r--r-- 1 zaurus qpe 308 Oct 28 11:29 DialupIrDA1070477321 Edit the last file you see (this will be the config you created by following the steps above) and add in "/dev/rfcomm0" to the top of the file, giving you something like: # more DialupIrDA1070477321 /dev/rfcomm0 115200 connect '/usr/sbin/chat -s -v -t 60 ABORT "NO CARRIER" ABORT "NO DIALTONE" ABORT "BUSY" "" "ate1" OK "AT+CGDCONT=1,\\\"IP\\\",\\\"orangeinternet\\\"" OK "ATDT*99***1#" CONNECT' crtscts noipdefault modem user "ip" usepeerdns defaultroute connect-delay 1000 remotename DialupIrDA1070477321 You should now find you can create a connection from the Zaurus.
