Finally got my Bold working with Aspire One over USB using barry.

Network manager does not work with pppob and pppd and basically DNS info is not updated. I found a thread on aspire one forum explaining how to add script files to update dns on pppd connect.

I am now curious to see if it does get 3G speed. (I only have edge coverage at home).

As a side note I tried to use the "pppob -P" command to add my device password without success. Looks like pppob only like digit password, no letters. and the bold doesnt like digit passwords... any suggestions?

Thanks!
