Hi,
How do we address the issues of making it work the latest chipset provided by the Service Provider to make it work on Ubuntu Desktops. I mean whenever there is a new USB Mobile Broadband Service chipset available in Market how do we make them work in Ubuntu. Do i need to update my Desktop to the latest release every time ?
For example : I use Tata Photon + with EC1260 chipset which works in Ubuntu 10.10 but when i try to use the latest Tata Photon + with EC152 chipset it does not work out of the box.
Please suggest/guide further.
Thanks
Kaushal

You just need the latest usb-modeswitch-data (and preferably the latest usb-modeswitch)

Before buying any of these modems please be sure of the technology in it. Right now companies are disposing off their EVDO modems through reduced price campaigns. Their theoretical speed limit is 2.4 Mbps. They use the CDMA band. The new higher speed 3G modems are different and expensive and *claim* speeds upto 21 Mbps. 3G in India uses the 2100 Mhz GSM UMTS band.
