USB Card (EC325) has been available for months now, though it always has been in short supply. Its also available all over India. The line "Available only in Tamilnadu" is for the prepaid NetConnect cards.

Yes my dear friends this USB card is available @ Rs. 4500/- at Web Worlds but Web World Express are selling it @ Rs. 4700/-.

I recommend to buy it only through Company's Web World and not from any franchised Web World Express.

Regards.

Just bought a HP DV6226US Laptop from the US. The OS is Windows Vista Home Premium.

My Reliance USD Data Card EC325 did not work at the first go. I had to play around a bit to get this to work.

1. Install the Reliance Netconnect software from the CD.

2. If the Huawei Connect software does not recognize the Data card, go to Device Manager.

Vista will assign multiple ‘data interface’ devices under the ‘Other devices’ category for the data card.

Right click the device, select ‘Update Driver Software…” and browse to Reliance CD. Make sure ‘Include Subfolders’ is checked.

Repeat for all other ‘data interface’ devices. Vista should indicate the successful installation of the following devices:

- HUAWEI Mobile Connect – 3G Modem

- HUAWEI Mobile Connect – 3G Application Interface

3. Shutdown and re-start the laptop. Restart the Huawei connect software and Connect. If you get a "Connection Failed: Please check the wireless device or the Settings of the Network connection" , you will need to setup a DUN manually:

- Click ‘Start’ and ‘Connect To’

- Click on ‘Set up a connection or network’

- Select ‘Set up a dial-up connection’ and click Next

- Select the data card modem.You will be prompted to choose between Huawei Modem and Huawei Data/Fax -- Select Huawei Modem

- Enter #777 into the dial-up phone number field

- Enter username and password and enter ‘Reliance’ or something similar as the connection name

- Click Connect

If all goes well, you will be connected to the Reliance Wireless Network. Going forward, you will need to use this Network connection whenever you need to connect to their network -- The Huawei Connect program may not work.

My guess is that the second Huawei Data/Fax device is causing the Huawei Connect program to fail. If somehow this second Fax device can be removed or uninstalled, things may work normally. Will check into this and post my findings.

Good luck and drop me an email at apurva.pradhan@gmail.com if you have any queries.

Thanks

Apurva

PS: By the way, if you call Reliance Support at *333, they will promptly tell you that the Data Card does not support Vista and that they have mentioned it clearly

on the Data Card packaging box (which is true). Not much helpful isn't it :dontknow:
