MD300 Sony Ericsson Modem on GadgetPC
« on: April 25, 2010, 06:30:07 pm »
Hi everyone,

I want to use my GadgetPC with the MD300 usb modem, as seen on the GadgetPC Aircard Kit.

Can anybody point me in the right direction?
Are there drivers for this device on ARM9 Linux, or should I go with installing Debian on my GPC and try installing it on Debian?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! :)

After many experiments we decided not  to use MD300 USB modem with GadgetPC. Unfortunately this modem works badly with USB Full Speed  Host port.
It works nice with USB High Speed  Host port.
We tested both ports on a PC  platform.
On Gadget PC we have a full speed port.
Thus we switched to modems from Sierra.
We tested Sierra Compass855 Aircard device. It worked very well.

Also, this modem is added to GadgetPC release.
So I guess you will not face any problems to configure and use that.
We tested the modem on AT&T network without authorization and with PAP authorization.
In both cases the modem worked reliable.
Please let me know if you need extra help to get started.
