I forgot to add: bsnl 3g has a hybrid mode which drops to 2G where only 2G is available. This works fine in windows, but I could not get it to work in linux. So was without broadband in some areas. But usbmodeswitch does create ttyUSB0, ttyUSB1 and ttyUSB3. It then shuts down 0 and 1 and 3 runs fine if there is 3G available. I now have to find out how to get 2 to work when only 2G is available. -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
