Reliance phones under linux for internet..

Hey all guys! I have seen some requests for getting reliance phones work under linux for internet

There is one simple method that connects you for 100% sure with reliance WLL phones. Try this. Download the attached file to your home directory. Untar it. (Right click it and choose extract). Go to terminal as root.

Now type
cd rconnect-0.5
./rconnect

It will ask you for your phone model. Please give either LG or SAMSUNG. Now it will ask you for the port to which it is connected. Give the appropriate port. e.g /dev/ttyS0 for COM1. It will detect the phone and set up the modem automatically.

To connect to internet type:
rconnect
to disconnect type:
rdisconnect

Please note that the above command is your phone number with area code but without the first zero. For e.g., if your number is 01243067854 thenyou will use 1243067854. Command will only work as root.

Under FC3 or Debian Sarge, you will also have to edit your /etc/resolv.conf file to have the following entries:

Code:
nameserver 202.138.103.100
nameserver 202.138.97.193
