Hello,

I have a little problem that I can't seem to figure out.  When I try to connect 
my TS-7400 to 
the internet via a Novatel U720 EVDO modem, the system hangs.  No serial 
console, no 
ssh.  I think it's related to the power supply, since this modem sucks so much 
juice that it 
ships with a Y-cable so it can draw power from two USB ports.  I have it 
connected to my 
TS-7400 via an unpowered USB hub.

I saw that someone else on the forum was having power issues using a GSM modem 
on 
the TS-7200 series boards.  Aparently that was solved by using a jumper to 
bypass the 
onboard voltage regulator.  The TS-7400 doesn't have that as far as I can tell. 
 I'm using 
the stock 5v, 1A (regulated I assume) power supply that comes with the 
development kit.  
Power supply voltage is around 4.70 volts with everything plugged in and at a 
prompt.  
When I try to bring up the modem, the voltage drops to about 4.53.  Is that low 
enough to 
cause the board to hang?  

It looks like pppd connects ok, but I'm not sure what is going on after that.  
It crashes on 
the command "pppd call sprint", where "/etc/ppp/peers/sprint" contains my ppp 
settings 
for a Sprint mobile broadband account.  For reference, "lsmod" includes all of 
the modules 
I thought would be necessary for this ppp connection: ppp_synctty, ppp_async, 
ppp_generic, slhc, usbserial.  The pppd log dump is listed below (I had to 
fetch the log 
after rebooting since it crashes every time).  Any thoughts on what might be 
causing the 
crash?

Thanks,
