ggrraay Hello thank you, I'm very new to Linux, but I'm learning. I like it. wait for me. trying to do what you asked me

emendoza

ggrraay the PuTTY console is great. I just installed it.
here what is requested

[root@issabel ~]# lsusb

emendoza For some reason there is no e1752 modem in usb devices list. Maybe you should try different usb port. Or maybe your issabel is in virtual machine? And second command should be
ls /dev/ttyUSB*

emendoza

ggrraay I have cast the second command as you asked. ls / dev / ttyUSB *
the asterisk is not seen here when I put the result of the console. I do not know the reason.

Yes, I'm in a Virtualbox virtual machine. Any suggestions?

ggrraay

emendoza I tried chan_dongle in VirtualBox, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't work for 5 or 10 minutes, then it's again fine. Then I installed issabel on a real hardware and all issues just vanished. But VirtualBox is fine for tests perhaps.
To make modem appear you have to "passthrough" modem device in VirtualBox. It's usb icon at the bottom. You need device filter like this https://imgur.com/a/ZlPcNZX. Then modem should appear in lsusb

emendoza

ggrraay I will make your suggestion!

emendoza

Thank you ggrraay . After a tough battle, I managed to get virtualbox to show the Huawei e1752 device. Solution: remove all device drivers, mobile partner and datacard. then install the default drivers of the e1752 CD that run when you connect the device to the USB port and then EUREKA! my device is shown in the virtualbox as usb. I will continue showing results of the commands:
lsusb

ls / dev / ttyUSB *

[root @ issabel ~] # lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 12d1: 1406 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. E1750
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b: 0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b: 0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

[root @ issabel ~] # ls / dev / ttyUSB *

/ dev / ttyUSB0 / dev / ttyUSB1

I will continue trying the instructions of darkside

ggrraay

emendoza There should be 3 items, ttyUSB2 is absent. Have you put sim card in the modem? Also, it can be a wrong modem mode. It has different modes, like driver installation, when it opens in Windows flash drive with drivers, modem only, etc. You need modem only mode. Linux can switch mode for you, you need to execute this in console
yum install usb_modeswitch usb_modeswitch-data
and then reboot
For me lsusb shows
Bus 001 Device 007: ID 12d1:1001 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. E161/E169/E620/E800 HSDPA Modem
It should be "modem", but I'm not absolutely sure about this. Thats huawei E173.

Now do the trunk and call (I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO DO IT). I will continue in development

ggrraay

emendoza Congratulations . You need to create custom trunk and put there in "Custom Dial String" Dongle/dongle0/$OUTNUM$

emendoza

Ok ggrraay . I followed Darkside step like this:

Setup a new custom trunk for your dongle under Connectivity → Trunks → Add Custom Trunk and set these values:

Trunk Name: to-my-cellphone
Outbound CallerID: Your SIM card number with country code (with a plus sign at the beginning)
Custom Dial String: dongle / dongle0 / $ OUTNUM $

::::::::::::::::::::
Now, how do I make a call from the dongle and Issabel? Do you have a knowledge of this? TK

ggrraay

emendoza You can add extension in issabel, and use softphone for making calls. For example Zoiper for android or X-Lite for Windows. You have to input your VM ip, extension number and password in softphone settings.

emendoza

ggrraay , Yesterday was a day of great experience with linux, Issabel and Dongle. Many thanks to Issabel's team. I'm made to order by skype: emendoza.doyma. My native language is Spanish, and by google translate I can use English.
Yesterday for some reason my Issabel NOT started correctly when creating the extensions, the users and testing the softphones. Apparently the reason was when I connected the microphones. My server could not start and I decided to install Issabel and the chan dongle again.
I have everything running correctly, I can make and receive calls from softphone to the extensions created. But I only need my, make and receive GSM calls from the dongle Huawei e1752. My dongle is made and received with the Mobile Partner application. But I need to make the calls with the softphones and Issabel. Is this possible @ggrraay? Have you had any experience in GSM calls with Issabel and DONGLE GSM 3G?

MTF

Hello Everyone,

Is there any solution like Script ose Web GUI, for receiving and senning the SMS?

Thanks in advance

emendoza

MTF Hi, maybe I can help with your request. I'm available by skype live: emendoza.doyma

ggrraay

emendoza You have to create an outbound route in issabel and specify there trunk with chan_dongle. Then just dial phone number on softphone.

geek

emendoza I'm sorry to hijack the post but where did you put the custom dial string in issabel?. I've looking everywhere and I can't seem to find that specific option.
Thanks

MTF

emendoza
