Some months back after tata indicom launched its plug and play it did
n't supported GNU/Linux as written on box. I had to try it configuring
before taking connection. I think you should try configuring it.

wvdialconf and wvdial (v. intelligent program) worked for me.

Now tataindicom pack for plug and play comes with support to Ubuntu,
Fedora and SUSE latest releases.  (as written on pack:). Ask me for
wvdial conf file off list if you want to :)
