Navneet, thanks a lot for sharing the settings. Is Reliance connection also CDMA 1x ? i just noticed that you have specified 115200 as the baud rate whereas, in my /etc/wvdial.conf, i have got 460800. I'm currently trying to explore with Init strings. Any ideas on how to make compression work ? it seems AT+CSO=<some-number> seems to make it work. For Qualcomm USB modem, i'm yet to decipher that. thanks Saifi.
