I am running Linux Ubuntu 1604 LTS and connect with the Internet by
wireless broadband. I have this week received a new Telstra modem Huawei
-B618-1944. This has three sockets: oneĀ USB and two LAN. A double-ended
ethernet cable was provided (but not a USB cable). Ubuntu help advises
that usually all one needs to do is connect the ethernet cable and
Ubuntu will automatically connect (evident by the connection icon
changing). IP addresses are supposed to be done by Ubuntu. Result: No
connection to Ubuntu in my desktop PC. Previously I have provide
connection information under the 'Mobile Broadband' editing window and I
presume that I should continue to do so. As there is no connection I do
not have cannot read the connection information of course.
Your assistance in solving this problem is requested. Thank you,
Geoffrey Combes
