In many cases earlier releases will also work that are not listed above, but generally not through the standard graphical networking utilities, and as additional software from a distribution's repository needs to be installed. As such users may want to check out our directions for manually setting up a cellular data connection via the terminal. As an example Trisquel 9 works out of the box with the EM7455 chip utilizing the standard graphical mobile broadband wizard, but whereas 8 does not users can still get it working by following our directions on setting up the modem utilizing the terminal. When using a terminal and manually setting up a connection it may be necessary to have an alternative temporary internet connection to install additional software (libmbim-utils). Mageia users should note that the distribution works with the above chips when using the GNOME desktop environment only after manually adjusting the firewall. Under OpenBSD users may need to setup the connection from the terminal (we haven't tested anything else). Linux Mint users should be aware that we have only verified support under the Cinnamon desktop environment and not any other desktop environments nor any non-Ubuntu based versions. If your distribution and release isn't listed above not to worry. We can't validate every distribution, release, and configuration under the sun. It just isn't realistic. Fortunately near all recently released distributions and desktop environments are compatible with our modems and chips. The question where it exists generally comes down to whether or not it'll 'just work'. If it won't you'll probably still be able to install a package or two from your distributions repository and manually configure the modem from a terminal using directions provided on our support page. That said if you have any questions about which card is right for you and/or compatibility with a particular distribution or release feel free to contact our support team. |
