Reliance Netconnect Broadband (Wireless broadband) Linux,Fedora
NOTE:This post is only specific to India , but if you like to configure huwaei or zte data card then you can check it out.
So Reliance. has launched Wireless Broadband. finally a couple of weeks earlier. It claims a speed uplink speed of 3.1mbps.
Lets give a reality check. BUT wait wait, this post was mainly a HowTo. guide to Configure Reliance Wireless Broadband in Linux.
BUT Before you get started, Statutory Warning: This Guide with all my good intention is to help people although i dont take any responsibility in-case your system screams out loud and breaks down. But yes i really like to help you stay connected with Linux,Federo
So lets get started.
Open the Terminal (Application->Accessories->Terminal)
Type SU (Super User, gives administrative privilege will need it little later). Key in the password .
then,
lsusb
Bus 007 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 004 Device 003: ID 12d1:1412 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
This thing pops Out
Note down the no just before Huawei or quallcom depending on which card you use . To my experience all cards of the same vendor will have the same id. like for Huawei itll be 12d1:1412.
next,
modprobe usbserial vendor=0xAAAA product=0xBBBB ,
Where AAAA is 12d1 and BBBB is 1412 in my case.
Then you have to edit wvdial.conf file, type,
gedit /etc/wvdial.conf
This will open wvdial.conf.
(NOTE: wvdial might not be installed , to install it .
Insert original UBUNTU CD
Go to System->Administration->software sources. add cd as a source and close . itll update itself, Then on terminal type,
sudo apt-get install wvdial .
And key in Ur password , that shall do.
NOW coming back to wvdial .conf. Copy and paste this overriding the previous setting in .
[Dialer Defaults]
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Stupid Mode = 1
Modem Type = USB Modem
ISDN = 0
Phone = #777
New PPPD = yes
Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
Username = 9310590985 (This is the no written in the back side and changes in every card).
Password = 9310590985 (This is the no written in the back side and changes in every card and is same as user name).
CBaud = 460800
Save it and exist .
Next,
Just enter terminal and sudo Wvdial
And your password to getconnected.
Best of Luck .
BTW, To my knowledge i am the First in Mumbai to use reliance NetConnect Broadband+ under Linux and post about it. Even The guys at reliance outlet said you cant, and were not ready to sell saying ill waste money. But one of us did it. U c at least a distinction in something.
