Speedtouch Suite

About

Speedtouch Suite provides an installer for setting up the Speedtouch USB modems automagically.

Installation

  1. Download the firmware. Just scroll down and grab the zip file.
  2. Download speedtouch-suite-gen-0.5.sh.
  3. Open up a terminal and run this command as root:
    sh speedtouch-suite-gen-0.5.sh
    
    Or if you use sudo just run it directly from your user account:
    sudo sh speedtouch-suite-gen-0.5.sh
    
  4. Edit the file /etc/speedtouch/speedtouch-suite.conf if you don't live in Portugal

Because it's illegal for me to include the modem's firmware in the installer the first file you download is the driver installation generator. It will create the actual installer bundling the firmware with it.

Now you can keep the speedtouch-suite-0.5.sh installer anywhere safe, for backup purposes.

Usage

Applications->System Tools->PPPoE Dialer

If that doesn't work, you can use the PPPoA dialer since the dialer depends on the cuntry and ISP of choice.

Enter your user name, password. If you're using the PPPoE dialer you have to choose the nas0 (or tap0 if you use a kernel 2.4).
