I have a Tata Indicom VDATA PCMCIA card for internet access

Is it possible to use this with Fedora core 6? Any pointers

I have used the Huawei EC321 data card on FC6.x86_64. Setting it up
using wvdial was a breeze. If you want, I can provide you the
wvdial
settings that I used.

I got it working with wvdial. Also got the modprobe to do it
automagically as described in the blog. Just one problem I have a
default gateway since I use the laptop at office too. wvdial/pppd
does
not put in a default route for the new connection. I tried the
defaultroute option in the /etc/ppp/options and /etc/ppp/peers/
wvdial
files but no avail. Can u tell me a tric by which I can have the
defaultroute inserted when i connect with wvdial and my office
route put
back when i disconnect?
This is what I used to do with my laptop. This was Debian, around
a year
ago. Default route will use eth0 on satrtup.
# route del default
$ wvdial
This will do the job. The default route will again come up whe you
reboot.
Now if you want to connect using eth0 w/o rebooting ..
# route add -net default dev eth0

Sharukh.

An ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain.
I have tried the USB card of Reliance and it got detected straight
away
with wvdial and is working fine.
The wvdial.conf file that is working for me is :
[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
Baud = 230400
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
Dial Command = ATDT
Phone = #777
Username = YOUR PHONE NUMBER
Password = YOUR PHONE NUMBER
Stupid Mode = 1
#Add this lines in /etc/resolv.conf =

#nameserver 202.138.96.2 =
#nameserver 202.138.103.100 =
ISDN = 0
Modem Type = Analog Modem
