Internet Connection through Idea NetSetter(Huawei E620) from Ubuntu 11.04

Internet connection through USB sticks works out of box in Ubuntu with usb-modeswitch. But Idea NetSetter - Huawei E620, requires a tweak.

1) gedit /lib/udev/rules.d/40-usb_modeswitch.rules file. 

2) Add -H switch (Huawei Mode) in the line under Huawei E169, which will be as follows after the change.

ATTRS{idVendor}=="12d1", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1001", RUN+="usb_modeswitch -H '%b/%k'"

Save the file and restart udev service.

In the Mobile Broadband Configuration Change the Number in the Basic section to #99***1#.

Now, the internet connection can be established through Idea NetSetter (Huawei E620) from Ubuntu 11.04.
