If you want to use Reliance or Tata Photon Wireless Broadband on Ubuntu 9.10 follow the following steps. Reliance is not providing guidelines for installing/using the Wireless broadband device (at least they didn't provide to me) so I have seen lots of queries in forums regarding this topic thats the reason for this post.
Ignore the debian package provided by provider.
Download following Packages from any of the machine connected to Internet and install them on your Ubuntu machine as per following sequence only as they have dependency order.
libxplc0.3.13_0.3.13-2ubuntu2_i386.deb
libwvstreams4.4-base_4.4.1-0.2ubuntu2_i386.deb
libwvstreams4.4-extras_4.4.1-0.2ubuntu2_i386.deb
libuniconf4.4_4.4.1-0ubuntu2_i386
wvdial_1.60.1_i386.deb
Now modify /etc/wvdial.conf with correct username and password provided by your network provider. (In case of Reliance Wireless Broadband it will be the number starting from 93xxxxxxxx)
wvdial.conf will look like this:
[Dialer Defaults]
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Init3 = AT+CRM=1
Stupid Mode = 1
Modem Type = Analog Modem
ISDN = 0
New PPPD = yes
Phone = #777
Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
Username = 93xxxxxxxx
Password = 93xxxxxxxx
Baud = 9600
Now go to the terminal and type following commands
1. wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
2. wvdial
First command will initiate the dialer and second will start the dialer.
You are DONE! Yah! it was this much easy :)
Go to the browser and start using the Internet...Enjoy Surfing!
