[opensuse] RNDIS / WinMo6 / UMTS modem issues
Hi, I'm trying to use a Windows Mobile 6 phone as UMTS modem under openSUSE 11.2. (The same hardware setup works with Windows XP w/o any issues). Once I connect the phone NetworkManager gets the setup done and everything seems to work at this point. I can even ping internet hosts and can establish tcp connections. But once real data should be transferred everything just stops. Below is the log from connecting the device via USB. I don't really have an idea if the issues in the log are connected to the problem. I don't see more interesting information in the logfile when the connection fails. Anyone got something like this working or any idea what's wrong here?

I have HTC S743 working well. RNDIS connection is also established for ActiveSync. I sort of disabled that by going to the settings and making the default USB option mass storage. To access internet either way you need to go under Start -> Accessories -> Internet Sharing or Start -> Settings -> Connections -> Bluetooth -> Connection sharing (both bring up the exact same screen). My phone is unlocked/unbranded. If you are using a phone bought through a carrier then you might need to do some further work.

I already switch explicitely to 'internet sharing'. That cannot be the issue here. Actually I found some page which describes exactly my issue: http://lodge.glasgownet.com/2009/05/31/rndis-modem-linux/ The mentioned fix is not clear to me. I'm a bit hesitant to switch to synce's rndis_host driver and from looking at the patch it seems to be not really applicable to the 11.2 kernel driver :-( Probably will try the other driver anyway if I get it to work.

I have the SynCE-supplied usb_rndis_lite in OBS system:SynCE, but it does not currently build for 11.2 kernel. Let me know if the patches described in your link work and I can integrate them into the package. I'll also ask on the SynCE mailing list about the safety of the patches.

I have your package branched to home:wrosenauer:kernel and fixed the build there. I also applied the patch as suggested above and this driver seems to work correctly during initial tests. I still have some concerns about what I probably have broken by replacing not only rndis_host but also usbnet and another module :-( At least I'm feeling a bit worried about it but for now I can say that it works for me. Why is the rndis driver from SynCE outdated so that it doesn't even build with newer kernels?
