Menginstal Modem Pada Kuliax

Langkah2 berikut diuji pada laptopku, Elite Group ECS Green 553 (alias G553)

lspci
Langkah pertama adalah mencoba lspci. Well... sebenarnya gue gak tahu nih perintah buat apa. Kayaknya buat detect2 apaan gitu.. hiks :(

Anyway... modem gue ke-detect kok.. (lihat yang dicetak tebal)

Pertanyaan buat gue: trus ngapain?


mencoba kppp
Sebenarnya berawal dari percakapan di milis Kuliax
http://groups.google.com/group/kuliax/browse_thread/thread/e57d441a3eb233b9/250511e4efbc69d0

Maka aku mencoba install kpp
sudo apt-get install kpp


Masih belum berhasil karena tidak punya /dev/modem.

mencoba slmodem
Aku lupa kenapa aku memutuskan mencoba ini. Aku lupa baca dokumentasi di mana.. Bahkan saat menginstal, aku tidak membaca manual sama sekali. Intinya benar-benar ngasal (atau bahasa MS Windowsnya, sekedar nge-klik "YES")

percobaan di telepon
Tentu saja harus dicoba.
Aku tadinya mencoba dengan indosat. Cuma karena sudah lama gak dipakai, tampaknya bermasalah. Dulu-dulu juga pernah punya masalah waktu masih pakai MS Windows. Akhirnya aku menggunakan telkomnet@instan.


Agak lambat sih dibandingkan internet kabel. Tetapi intinya tetap bisa nyambung.
Yuhu!
