Let me know which version of Ubuntu you are using (Edubuntu is a derivative of Ubuntu).

If you are using Ubuntu 10.4 or higher it will detect the device automatically. You will have to create a Mobile Broadband Connection:

  1. Click on the Network Connection icon on the top panel.
  2. Click "Edit Connections..."
  3. Select "Mobile Broadband" tab.
  4. Click "Add".

    Here you will:

    • Select the device and click Continue.
    • Select Country and click Continue.
    • Select Provider and click Continue.
    • Select "my plan is not listed" and enter any APN and click Continue.
    • for the dialup string use #777.
    • enter your username and password given by BSNL.
    • Click Apply.
  5. Now again left click on network icon. You will now see your connection under Mobile broadband.

  6. Click on it to connect.

That's all.

    Ubuntu has also ability to detect modem if you use older version than 10.04
