After surfing so many posts on Internet about installing and running Reliance Net Connect on Ubuntu, finally I was successful. I have HUAWEI (model no. HUAWEI EC1262).

So, here I am going to explain step by step configuration.

First, install Wvdial. (You may temporarily use wifi connection for all these, so that you need not to download these on separate machine or if you like you can.)

1

$ sudo apt-get install wvdial

Also install other packages required.

1

$ sudo apt-get install libuniconf4.6 libwvstreams4.6-base libwvstreams4.6-extras wvdial

Type in the following command to create wvdial.conf

1

$ sudo wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf

Next, open up the wvdial.conf file.

1

$ sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf

Here, are the contents of file. Some of the lines may differ, if line missing from mentioned below add them.

     [Dialer Defaults]
      Init1 = ATZ
      Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
      Modem Type = Analog Modem
      ISDN = 0
      New PPPD = yes
      Baud = 9600
      Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
      Username = "Add reliance netconnect phone number here with out quotes"
      Password = "Add reliance netconnect phone number here with out quotes"
      Phone = #777
      Stupid Mode = 1

At last, open up the terminal give the following command

1

$ sudo wvdial

I hope your connection will be successful, and the output will be like this.

Note: Keep the terminal window open till you want to use internet. When you want to close connection, press ctrl+c.

P.S. If it does not work then give a try to other way here.
