Got a Tata Photon+? Happy about the 3.1mbps connection? Well it sure works like a charm – and I would confess here that all videos we uploaded to youtube during the IIT Techfest coverage this year was using a Tata Photon+. So after being impressed by this product that I borrowed from my Dad for a week, I decided to buy one. And here began a 48 hour mad chase hunting for the Windows 7 drivers to get this working.
The Company's net loss totaled W49.21B. Results are not comparable to the previous period due to '10 financial is consolidated. Is a Korea-based manufacturer specialized in the provision of electronic components and communication equipment. The Company operates its business under three segments: LED, C&B and display segments.

Incidentally the Photon+ I used was an older model by Huawei and the newer models shipped are the EpiValley modems. For some reason, the one I took last week didn’t work on Windows 7. bummer! Search for Epi Valley SEC-8089 drivers on Google and you would come across fake sites using the keywords to give you nothing at all. Search for Tata Indicom / Photon Windows 7 drivers didn’t help either (thanks to the wonderful website they have built from a SEO perspective). So if, you are one of those who are looking for the Tata Photon+ Windows 7 drivers (and believe me there are plenty of us out there), here are the links.
Tech support scams are an industry-wide issue where scammers trick you into paying for unnecessary technical support services. You can help protect yourself from scammers by verifying that the contact is a Microsoft Agent or Microsoft Employee and that the phone number is an official Microsoft global customer service number.

I had posted this message earlier. Unfortunately it was not put up on the forum.
I have recently updated form Suse 11.1 to Suse 11.2. When I connect the above USB modem it is recognised by the system and I configured through yest>network>modem.But it did not work. Then I used wvdialconf and could get connected only once through wvdial. But subsequent connection fails. Each time I connect it to the system it gets attached to a different ttyACMn where n value varies from 0 to 7. So if want to dial I have to use each time the commands
#>wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
#>wvdial
It initialises the modem but the connection fails with the following message
linux-ab5h:~ # wvdial

I have tried all possible suggestions given on this forum including installing latest version of usb_modswitch.
I have switched to Linux a year back. Please provide some expert help?
Thanks in advance.
