Install gnome-ppp from synaptic or Add / remove software.

After installation just go to Applications -->Internet -> Gnome PPP
a very simple GUI dialog will open up , here enter setup

for the device choose /dev/ttyUSB0 - leave the others at defaults -
You can check the options menu where there are some nice options like
auto reconnect which are helpful for trouble some connections.
Also nice are minimize and dock when connected options this puts a
network connected and blinking icon into your menu so you know you are
connected.

Close- then in the username and pass word enter the appropriate ones
and then in the phone number again whatever is appropriate (for usb
serial / mobile broadband i think its a standard #777)

Then press connect and thats it - a log file will show you whats happening

If for some reason this does not work you may need to use it under sudo mode
go to terminal and do
:~$ sudo gnome-ppp

and set up the connection

if this works then you can make a launcher on your desktop by right clicking
in type say run application in terminal
in name give it any name
in command put down sudo gnome-ppp

spring something click on that and choose your icon

this should work

you can try it using a live cd

This also works for the older generation Huawei ETS 2288 wll phones
and for the older non mobile broadband data cards
