Verizon Aircard UM150 and Ubuntu 9
This could NOT be easier.
First, connect to the verizon network using your aircard on a windows machine. I think it just needs this first time authentication.
1) Now on your ubuntu machine, right click on the network applet at the top right and choose edit networks
2) Click the mobile broadband connection tab
3) I selected Verizon
4) For user add your number@alltel.net
5) For password I put in alltel
6) For the number it should be #777
7) Select the automatically connect checkbox
THAT’S IT.
Now when you plug in your aircard, within 20 seconds it automatically connects and away you go.
There are other ways to connect also, including the GnomePPP dialer and such, but I believe with that you have to manually update the gateway. This is the easiest way that I found to work.
