Hi.

How do an end-user make use of a phonet network interface?

Nov 15 16:31:54 toshr500 usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=0421, idProduct=046e
Nov 15 16:31:54 toshr500 usb 1-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
Nov 15 16:31:54 toshr500 usb 1-1: Product: Nokia 6110 Navigator
Nov 15 16:31:54 toshr500 usb 1-1: Manufacturer: Nokia
Nov 15 16:31:54 toshr500 usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
Nov 15 16:31:54 toshr500 cdc_acm 1-1:1.8: ttyACM0: USB ACM device

So I can use /dev/ttyACM0 with pppd and get a 3G connection. so far, so good.

But what is the usbpn0 network interface, and could I use that instead of fiddling with chatscripts and pppd, to get a 3G connection?
Is this feature complete? 

Google came up short on this topic, and the kernel documentation did not enlighten me.
The best I find is http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-usb/2009/7/21/6243913 .
Does this still describe the current state of affairs?


Thanks,

Dag B
