Sunny » Blog Archive How to make reliance netconnect work in Ubuntu 10.10
well, I recently bought a reliance netconnect broadband internet and it was quite easy to connect to Internet via my Ubuntu 
I will brief the steps here
1. Plug the device to a USB port
2. Ubuntu 10.04 should detect your device now. Now go to System -> Preferences -> Network connectionsand select the Mobile Broadband tab. Click Add. You’ll see something like this:
Reliance Net Connect
3. From the above step, just follow whatever the wizard says. Select India in Providers Country page and selectReliance in Provider page respectively.
4. In the last window, give a name to the connection (Reliance for example) and then enter your USB device number which is nothing but the mobile number in the user name and password fields (yes, both are same). In the Number field, type #777 if it is not already there.
5. Enable the Connect automatically if you need it to be connected automatically.
6. Now, click apply and you’re done. The connection should work now. If you didn’t select connect automaticallythen you can click on the network icon on the Ubuntu top bar and select your connection which you created just now.
