How to setup Tata wimax connection in Ubuntu 9.4? Dear All,
Anybody have idea how to setup Tata wimax in Ubuntu 9.4? I am stuck with this topic. Actually Ubuntu is trying to connect but after some time its says offline. Seems network card is installed properly.
With windows installation also there was a problem first. The person who came to install the device changed the network card setting "Speed/Duplex settings" to "Autonegotiate for 10HD". Then only the connection started to work in Windows. Mine is NVIDIA nForce network controller.
I think the same setting need to be applied in Linux (Ubuntu 9.4). But I dont know how to do that.. Anybody for help?
Thanks,

Re: How to setup Tata wimax connection in Ubuntu 9.4? what is the brand of your wimax CPE/router ?
you need to open a terminal(in menu Applications>Accessories>Terminal) and type :
when password is asked ,give your ubuntu login password.when you type the password on terminal ,you cannot see it ,nor there any feedback that you are typing the password.once entered ,press "ENTER" key.then try again.Code:sudo /etc/init.d/dhcpd restart

Re: How to setup Tata wimax connection in Ubuntu 9.4? When I try sudo /etc/init.d/dhcpd restart it shows the below message.
root@ubuntu:~# sudo /etc/init.d/dhcpd restart
sudo: /etc/init.d/dhcpd: command not found
Also I could not find anything named dhcp in /etc/init.d/ directory.
Anyother thing need to be installed?
From the informations on the forum i installed dhcpcd. It was not installed.
Then I tried for disabling avahi

sudo /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon stop
then used
sudo ifconfig eth0 down
sudo ifconfig eth0 up
then
sudo dhcpcd eth0
After this it showed an IP with ip4 config. But no chance with internet. I t showing some bytes sent information, but 0 bytes recieved.
I saw an information saying "Remove the link of avahi from /etc/init.d to stop it from coming up at boot". But how to do this? Need to delete the avahi file from etc/init.d?
The name specified on the device is PHIHONG. specification IEE 802.3af complaint single port injector.. Is that you asked for?
Thanks,
