Hi August,

Please be sure to confirm this issue exists with the latest development release of Ubuntu. ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/ . If the issue remains, please run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux 599569

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.

[This is an automated message. Apologies if it has reached you inappropriately; please just reply to this message indicating so.]

Jeremy,

This issue definitely exists upstream, the patch I sent you is the upstream patch I submitted to mainline. The PID's haven't been updated since april in that source file, see git history for release and nextgen:

I've built a deb with this change and tested it on two different 10.04 systems with the 250U card. Works perfectly.

SRU Justification

Impact: The upstream process for stable tree updates is quite similar in scope to the Ubuntu SRU process, e.g., each patch has to demonstrably fix a bug, and each patch is vetted by upstream by originating either directly from Linus' tree or in a minimally backported form of that patch.

The 2.6.32.21 upstream stable patch set is now available and contains fixes for this problem. It should be included in the Ubuntu kernel as well.

Accepted linux into lucid-proposed, the package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!

Could people affected by this please test the proposed kernel and report whether it resolves the problem? We are awaiting confirmation that the issue is resolved.

See the previous comment for information about how to install the proposed kernel.

Thanks!

Does the kernel patch allow the function of both the 3G and 4G networks, or is this still a 3G-Only fix?

Yeah I can confirm that... I just built a new system with Ubuntu
10.10 beta which has the included drivers, but I live in Denver and
have no way of checking 4G connectivity.

The patch just makes the driver accept the additional device. I cannot really say whether 4G is supported in general or not. So the device appearing is enough for verification here. If 4G would be an issue this should be a different bug. Thanks for testing.

Thanks for the information, Stephen. I'm planning on taking a trip to
4G-Land in the near future so i'll see how it goes and submit a new bug
if the Sierra 250U refuses to speak "4G" :-)

As far as I understand there is still no 4g support for this device. I am currently ruining Edubuntu 11.04 and have ran the most recent updates at the date of this posting (July 25th, 2011 2:14am est time). Once again this is reply to the fact that the 4g wimax drivers for the Sierra 250U. I am not for sure on how others read this report originally, but I feel the original author is stating the same thing:

"Add VID/PID for Sierra Wireless 250U USB dongle to drivers/usb/sierra/sierra.c
*Allows use of 3G radio only*"

so... the 4g is not working, I am not seeing how this is resolved through these post.

But as suggested:

Stefan Bader (stefan-bader-canonical) wrote on 2010-09-24: #10

"The patch just makes the driver accept the additional device. I cannot really say whether 4G is supported in general or not. So the device appearing is enough for verification here. If 4G would be an issue this should be a different bug. Thanks for testing."

I will open a new bug or problem report.

This bug (device support for the dongle) was/is fixed in upstream since 2.6.35 ((this only enables 3G). So I am changing the development task for this report to fixed as well.

For anyone who is looking for 4G support, I contacted Sierra and Beecem several times about getting 4G reference driver material without any success. I personally have moved to another radio vendor for 4G support.
