Pada posting kali ini, ane akan membagi pengalaman ane tentang setting modem ZTE MF180 di OS Linux Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

Software yang diperlukan:
– Wdial (sudo apt-get install wvdial)
– usb_modeswitch (sudo apt-get install usb_modeswitch)

aplikasi tersebut di ubuntu 12.04 sudah ada secara default jadi tidak perlu diinstall lagi, untuk ubuntu dibawah 12.04 silahkan install terlebih dahulu.

tancapkan modem dan buka terminal lalu :
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ lsusb

Bus 002 Device 002: ID 19d2:ffde ZTE WCDMA Technologies MSM –> modem terdeteksi sebagai cd-rom

lalu ikutilah perintah berikut:

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo -s
