PX500 Card
In this card the airprime module detects 9 ports instead of 6.
from dmesg output:
airprime 6-1:1.0: airprime converter detected
usb 6-1: airprime converter now attached to ttyUSB0
usb 6-1: airprime converter now attached to ttyUSB1
usb 6-1: airprime converter now attached to ttyUSB2
airprime 6-1:1.1: airprime converter detected
usb 6-1: airprime converter now attached to ttyUSB3
usb 6-1: airprime converter now attached to ttyUSB4
usb 6-1: airprime converter now attached to ttyUSB5
airprime 6-1:1.2: airprime converter detected
usb 6-1: airprime converter now attached to ttyUSB6
usb 6-1: airprime converter now attached to ttyUSB7
usb 6-1: airprime converter now attached to ttyUSB8
The ports that works is ttyUSB3.
So it is just a matter of changing that port in the /etc/ppp/peers/sprint script.
Everything else works great! (I am getting 100k peaks in downloads, a lot faster than Windows)
Thank you very much for this excellent howto!
