Recently lot of laptop vendors give Datacard (Reliance ot TataIndicom) free
or at discounted rate with laptop.
Earlier today I saw that one of the HP laptops provide "free" data card, but
to keep costs down they ship with FreeDOS.
Obviously options are to install Linux or Windows.
Has anyone successfully used these datacards under linux ? (I'm interested
in ubuntu, but any other distro is OK too)
tataindicom card (or usb modem - both huawei ) just works well. card
will need pcmcia support enabled, usbmodem needs usbserial module
enabled.
wvdial takes both once detected..
