Setting mentioned about the ptcl Vwireless on the url http://www.openpages.info/huawei.html is not working for ubuntu 5.10
after doing same as mentioned in that page, my ubuntu machine shows the error in the the output of "dmesg -c"ti_usb_3410_5052 1-1:1.0: TI USB 3410 1 port adapter converter detected
ti_usb_3410_5052: probe of 1-1:1.0 failed with error -5
I mean to say that the error is a bit changed.ti_usb_3410_5052: probe of 1-2:1.0 failed with error -5
Any idea?

Thanks Tariq Zia, it works great for Ubuntu Dapper Drake, 6.06 LTS.
@sarthor: Your problem maybe because of older kernel with Ubuntu 5.10. And also make sure that you have this ETS2551 model for which this guide was written because I think for other models the Vendo Id which you hardcode in the rule file would be different.

Thank you brother, I have same modle of equeptment for which that guide was written, but seems like its due to my old kernal.

Recently I had to configure the modem on my cousin's computer who is using Ubuntu 7.10. The same method may work for 8.04 as well.
I was getting the same error even after I edited the rule file i.e; it would choose configuration #1 instead of #2 for the USB to serial cable. So after about three hours of trying I got it to work at last. Of course there may be better solutions than mine as I am no expert (I had never read the man file for udev before) but here is what I did.
First I edited /etc/wvdial.conf and then I made a script named ptcl-connect in the home directory of the user.
(The path to the file bConfigurationValue may be different on your system. for example it may be /sys/bus/usb/devices/2-1/bConfigurationValue. Just see which directory is created on connecting the cable in /sys/bus/usb/devices.)
Then I made a launcher on the desktop for the script. I set the type as "Application in terminal" so that I can easily stop wvdial by Ctrl+C and the command as "gksu [path to script]" so that it is run with root permissions. (This step was done on GNOME so it may be a little different for other desktop environments.)
For DNS I added the DNS servers for OpenDNS because PTCL's DNS servers do not work well on my dial-up connection.
After that I was able to use the modem by double-clicking the launcher. The only problem was that I could not connect because internet on his set has not yet been activated even after a whole month.
BAKWAAS SERVICE!!!

Another thing that I forgot to mention is that if I would set the value of "RUN" in the rule file as "echo 'echo 2 > /sys/bus/usb/devices/1-1/bConfigurationValue' | sh", it would make the processor usage go to 100% and the output of dmesg would show the following lines again and again:
which means that udev is connecting and disconnecting the device again and again. I do not know whether the problem is with udev or sh. The strange thing is that killing and restarting udev would cure the problem.
Can someone try to find out the reason?
