Just wanted to make myself an Internet Router using an USB modem

I succeded in doing so using an old Broadcom router (Asus WL500g Deluxe) and flashed it with 3rd. party firmware  CDMA@wifi from Koppel – I Entered settings below, but kept my Huawei E180 protected by pin-code, so had to modify one of the chat scripts before success. Se howto below.

Telnet into router and then

1) Open /tmp/ppp/gprs/gprs.chat (with vi or any or editor) 
2) Fint the line containing ATI and after that add ” ‘AT+CPIN=****’
3) Save the file
4) Then add with vi editor to your ‘/tmp/local/.files’ the full path of gprs.chat
file ‘/tmp/ppp/gprs/gprs.chat’
5) the run flashfs save && flashfs commit && flashfs enable && reboot
