I downloaded and installed Draisberghof's usb_modeswitch. The following are the contents of my /etc/usb_modeswitch.conf : DisableSwitching=0 EnableLogging=1 DefaultVendor=0x12d1 DefaultProduct=0x140b TargetVendor=0x12d1 TargetProduct=0x1446 CheckSuccess=20 MessageEndpoint=0x0f MessageContent="55534243123456780000000000000011062000000100000000000000000000" When I run usb_modeswitch -c /etc/usb_modeswitch.conf, I get the following message : Looking for target devices ... No devices in target mode or class found Looking for default devices ... found matching product ID adding device Found device in default mode, class or configuration (1) Accessing device 010 on bus 000 ... Getting the current device configuration ... OK, got current device configuration (1) Using interface number 0 Error: can't use storage command in MessageContent with interface 0; interface class is 255, should be 8. Aborting. So my FreeBSD box cannot speak to internet and I have boot MS-DOG for this holy purpose. Can someone please suggest a remedy ? Thanks in advance & -- Regards, Manish Jain +91-88064-38388
