If you have a CDMA modem and it has not been activated, you must activate it first on a Windows system with the supplied software. Some service providers pre-activate their devices, but NETGEAR recommends that you first try the device on a Windows machine. Check whether or not your system already has the NETGEAR driver by typing the following command. # modinfo sierra If the result is 'Could not find module sierra' then the driver is not installed. If a driver is installed, check whether the version of the installed driver is older or newer than the one posted above. If there is no version, it is older.

Prior to installing the driver, the kernel source code must be downloaded into /usr/src/linux. Depending on your Linux distribution, the location of the kernel source code varies.

However, the distribution package manager (e.g. Yum, yast, or apt) can help you find it (try searching in the manager for 'kernel source'). Driver Installation Instructions • Navigate to the directory that contains the sierra drivers and extract the files by typing the following commands: # tar -xvf v.x.y.z_kernel2.6.y.tar ( e.g. Tar -xvf v.1.7.x_kernel2.6.28.tar ) # cd kernel-2.6.y • Compile and install the new driver by using the following command: # make # sudo make install (Enter the password you use to log into your Linux account if prompted) The driver is now installed. TRU-Install Patch Instructions If you have Kernel 2.6.23 or later you may skip this section (kernel version you can check with command 'uname -r') Newer adapter products come with the TRU-Install feature which bundles the software ( compatible with PCs running Windows™) for the adapter inside the adapter.
