Just few days ago, i installed UBUNTU 8.04 LTS on my laptop, as i am user of BSNL Broadband, i connected BSNL Broadband [Dataone] to my laptop for surfing the net, but i think few people face few problems while connecting to BSNL Broadband [Dataone] in Ubuntu Linux. so i am providing a quick guide or tutorial for new users to start there BSNL Boradband on Ubuntu Linux.
[Note: This guide is for LAN connection only, and not for the USB connections as many modem manufacturer doesnt provide drivers for Linux versions.]
Step 1:

Step 4:

Select Point to Point connection, and go to its properties. It will pop up the pppo properties.
