#1 Old D211 in Redhat 7.3: Can only access IP addresses, not DNS - 1970-01-01, 02:00

Hi, I finally got the Nokia D211 to access my GPRS service in Redhat 7.3, with one problem. I can't ping www.yahoo.com but I can ping it's IP. Same when I try to access webpages.

Secondly, according to guides on the web, my modem initialisation string should be

at+cgdcont=1,"IP","internet";^sgauth=1

However, this gives me "BAD INITIALISATION STRING" and the PPD service starts successfully when I use only:

at+cgdcont=1,"IP","internet";

How important is the ^sgauth=1 command?

Thanks from Singapore

Hello,

Copy d211/scripts/ip-up.local to /etc/ppp/, and it should work.

The "^sgauth=1" command is not familiar to me. I think it is not important if the connection works without it.


Best Regards,

Nokia D211 Support
