Hi Friends
Here are some tips for configuring aztech modem in UBUNTU
1.Download the driver file ueagle-data-1.1.tar.gz from

http://eagle-usb.org/ueagle-atm/non-free/ueagle-data-1.1.tar.gz

2.Save the file in your home directory, then:

$ tar -xvzf ueagle-data-1.1.tar.gz 

$ sudo mkdir /lib/firmware/ueagle-atm

$ cd  ueagle-data-1.1/

$ sudo cp -a * /lib/firmware/ueagle-atm

SO FIRMWARE IS SETUP THEN RUN:

$ sudo modprobe ueagle-atm

IF EVERYTHING IS FINE OUR MODEM LIGHTS SHOULD FLASH FOR A BIT AND THEN
STAY ON NOW RUN:

$ dmesg | grep ueagle 

see something like:

usb 1-2: [ueagle-atm] modem operational
usb 1-2: [ueagle-atm] ATU-R firmware version : 43e2ead7


NOW WE NEED TO CONFIGURE THE INTERNET CONNECTION

$ gksudo gedit /etc/ppp/peers/ueagle-atm 

And in this file put:

user "<your username>"
password "<your password>"
plugin pppoatm.so <VP>.<VC>
noipdefault
usepeerdns
defaultroute
persist
noauth

Where <your username> is your ISP username and <VP> and <VC> are
decimal numbers which vary from country to country, and sometimes
between providers.

eg: MINE WAS 0.50(VP.VC)

Now modify /etc/ppp/chap-secrets:

$ sudo gedit /etc/ppp/chap-secrets

You should have a single line which looks like this:

"myusername"  "*"  "mypassword"  "*"

again, you should replace "myusername" and "mypassword" with your ISP
login.
IF THE LINE IS NOT THERE TYPE IT AND SAVE

NOW CONFIGURATION IS OK NOW RUN

$ sudo modprobe pppoatm
$ sudo pppd call ueagle-atm

To check connection TYPE:

$ ifconfig

WE CAN SEE:


ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
inet addr:83.30.157.107 P-t-P:213.25.2.202 Mask:255.255.255.255
UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

collisions:0 txqueuelen:3
RX bytes:724078 (707.1 KiB) TX bytes:184065 (179.7 KiB)

SO ITS DONE,HAPPY BROWSING

Next time you reboot, if your modem is plugged in the ueagle-atm
should load automatically. You'll still need to run 'modprobe pppoatm'
and 'pppd call ueagle-atm'. You could put them in a script or your
session startup if you want.
