GPRS on Linux

Well I will be discussing in this post about how to Connect GPRS on Linu (Fedora Core 6).....Its actually very easy to do this.....i did it on my Nokia N70 using USB data cable and its working perfectly fine.....

- First open up System->Administration->Network on your system
- Then click on Hardware and add New
- In The Hardware Type choose Modem and click Next
- In Modem Device type /dev/ttyACM0
- Choose Baud Rate as 460800
- Choose flow Of Control as Hardware(CRTSCTS) and click OK
- Then go to Device and click on new here too
- Choose Modem Connection from the list and click Forward
- Type in Phone No as *99#
- Give any suitable name in the Providers Name
- Give both Username and Password as "user" even if you think it is not needed
- Once the Device is included in the list Select it and click on Edit
- In the Modem Initialization String enter The Init String......If you dont have it call your customer care and they'll tell you what it is

THATS IT!! now click on your connection from the Device list and Activate and you are done.....
