* install wvdial using the command sudo apt-get install wvdial
* After installation again type sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf on terminal , which will open the configuration file.
* Enter the following details in configuration file

* Now close the configuration file and type sudo wvdial. You should see a long list of arbit codes followed by some IPs. If you see the IPs then you are connected! Don’t close the terminal, or else you’ll get disconnected. To manually disconnect, just go to the terminal and press Ctrl+C.
