Hi Prakash On Ubuntu, we have found that only the Huwaei data card works. The ZTE does not work.
Problem is that Reliance has phased out the Huwaei card and does not offer that on new connections, this creates problems for people who migrate to Ubuntu. Either they should continue to support the Huwaei card or should provide support on ZTE. We have not found any other company (bsnl/airtel/vodafone) providing support for GNU/Linux on their wireless cards Would be good to also hear others experiences regards, Guru ubuntu-in-requ...@lists.ubuntu.com wrote: > Send ubuntu-in mailing list submissions to > ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > ubuntu-in-requ...@lists.ubuntu.com > > You can reach the person managing the list at > ubuntu-in-ow...@lists.ubuntu.com > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of ubuntu-in digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
