Hello Krish
Modem instal
The modems which are connected above the serial interface to the calculator function as a rule immediately easily. If the modem is inserted in the calculator or is connected by USB, one must pursue more expenditure to be able to use the modem. There are also some modems (so-called "Winmodems") which do not function at all under Linux. To check this, one can also pull up for it the hardware data bank and the hardware Blacklist which have, nevertheless, no right to completeness.
Serial modems
For the modems which are connected above the serial interface 8.04 Hardy Heron no additional software packages must be installed to Ubuntu. Under Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex the package is able when required
network-admin (universe,)
are postinstalled .The serial interface is demanded under Linux over the device/dev/ttySX.
From the world of Windows one knows the names "COM1", "COM2" etc. this correspond "/dev/ttyS0", "/dev/ttyS1" etc. Becoming a serial modem by the start of the calculator recognised, it becomes automatic with the device "/dev/modem" verlinkt.
Smart modems or Winmodems
In many notebooks so-called soft modems are obstructed. This are special modems which use, e.g., the sound card of the calculator to generate the signals required for the modulation / demodulation. For some chip sentences exists a driver which one can instal about the package management. Moreover one finds information under smart link in the Wiki.
Since Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy gibbon the drivers of some Winmodems can be installed rather comfortably about the restricted manager.GNOME
unscaled one
Under GNOME a dial-up connection about modem so as a network map is furnished. Under
"System-> administration-> network"
if one selects the entry "modem connection" and clicks on "qualities". Before one can give now the dial-up data for the Internet provider, one must activate the modem about "This connection" freischalten. Among the riders "modem" and "options" one can fix the interface to be used and put other options.
In order to produce the connection one can use the Modemapplet in the GNOME Panel. To add it, one clicks with the right mouse key on the Panel and chooses "the Panel add". In the following window one selects the Applet "modem supervise". -

Hi Krish, Sully,
I had applied for a mtnl triband connection before, when i got tired of waiting for them and got a Reliance connection instead. As far as i know mtnl insists that you have a D-link modem (whatever that means), and generally supply the modem themselves. Also, i believe during activation, their technicians are supposed to do this task for you. You should insist on that, you are entitled to that service. My Reliance connection comes through a Cat 5 cable and even though a modem and telephone is mandatory with it, i have plugged in the cable directly to get better speeds because i have no use for the telephone. -

Hello Kris, Sadicote.
It would be to be known Interresant how they go to the Internet.
Analogously modem, or connection DSL.
DSL connection is recognised by Ubuntu, actually, itself and is put.
The only one what one must act, (these are with us) the user data one of the Internet supplier gets in the DSL modem to write.
Greeting Sully
