I am using both the Airtel USB Data device and the BSNL EV-DO. I am also aware the Tata Photon Plus can be made to work with Hardy with a bit of tweaking. The Airtel device is auto-recognized by Hardy, and is zero-config. In many cases, these devices can be made to work with GNU/Linux as generic modems, even while there is no explicit support from the vendor. satish On Wed, Nov 11, 2009 at 3:29 PM, Krishnakant <[email protected]> wrote: > On Wed, 2009-11-11 at 15:22 +0530, Arky wrote: >> Hi, >> >> Yeah, they insist that datacards don't work with linux.
