I have not used the ETS2280  but I have used the ETS1201 which is also 
distributed by BSNL for WLL access, and it works much better with 
internet than the Airtone or Hantel. I have configured the Hantel, 
Airtone and Huawei ETS1201 for internet access, all are CDMA phones. I 
am guessing that configuring the ETS2280 may not be too different than 
configuring ETS1201.

I have the following three lines in my /etc/rc.local, at the bottom of 
the file:


sudo -S modprobe usbserial vendor=0x12d1 product=0x1010 < 
/path/to/filewithuserpassword
sudo mknod /dev/ttyUSB0 c 188 0
sudo mknod /dev/ttyUSB1 c 188 1

The vendorid and productid hex numbers are found using lsusb, add 0x at 
the beginning of those numbers. I guess that these ids for the ETS2280 
would be different than ETS1201. The rest should work okay.

Sincerely,

Moz
