There are two GUI ways...I think the first one is the simplest.... 1. Using debian based NetworkManagerApplet ( http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/ ) 1. Open Network Connections Window 2. Go to Mobile Broadband Tab 3. Press Add 4. A configuration window appears. Select country and service provider ( IDEA Cellular ) 5. Press Apply. Now a broad band template is created. 6. Select the connection and press Edit in the parent window. 7. Since It is GSM Number = *99# Username = <username you have> Password = <password you have> 8. In IPv4 settings select Automatic (PPP) 9. Done Click on the wireless connection in the pop up window of the net.man.applet. In 2-3 seconds you are connected. 2. Using GNOME PPP 1. Type username & password 2. Press setup and detect device (modem) in that window. 3. Type is usb modem. 4. Phone number = *99# And initstring2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0 5. Leave the rest as defaults works fine. 6. In the parent window press connect and you are done.
In my experience gnome-ppp is a slight faster. But gnome-ppp sometimes needs run from terminal as sudo :( Regards to all.... Keep all of us updated from your experience....
