Airtel M-Broadband on Linux using Vodafone E220

Recently, I unlocked the Dialog Vodafone E220 USB mobile broadband modem and switched to a new Airtel connection. I can connect on Widows based PCs without any trouble using Mobile Partner, but I cannot connect to the Airtel Network on the Linux System. However my Dialog connection works very well both on the Windows and Linux systems.

Please help me configure the Airtel connection on Linux using the Vodafone E220 USB modem.

Venue: Punchi Theatre
Host: The Interact Club of St. Peter’s College
Participation: School Children & Teachers
Joker: Mr. Halk Azeez

The first time was a hit and it took us through a roller coaster ride along with of our protagonist Rajeev, as he dealt with the effects of ADHD and society’s reactions to it.

We hope that the second run will better! Hoping to see most of you there.

wireless electricity?

Eric Giler wants to untangle our wired lives with cable-free electric power. Here, he covers what this sci-fi tech offers, and demos MIT’s breakthrough version, WiTricity – a near-to-market invention that may soon recharge your cell phone, car, pacemaker.

As the CEO of MIT-inspired WiTricity, Eric Giler has a plan to beam electric power through the air to wirelessly power your laptop or recharge your car. You may never plug in again.

Why you should listen to him:

Eric Giler heads WiTricity, a startup with a product straight out of science fiction: wireless electricity, beamed from a base station to your electrical devices. The technology was developed by an MIT team led by theoretical physicist Marin Soljaƒçiƒá (who won a MacArthur “genius”grant last year). Now, WiTricity is one of several startups developing tech to safely transmit power through the air — and potentially untether our electronic age.

The technology at the core of WiTricity’s approach is called magnetic coupled resonance, which can provoke an energetic response at a distance between two coils, one powered, the other not. If the two coils are correctly tuned to one another, energy flows from the connected one (installed, say, on the ceiling of a room) into the other (inside, say, your laptop). Giler presented a demo of it at TEDGlobal  2009 — and several companies are already planning to add it to their phones, cameras, TVs and other devices.

A feat of physics so subtle and so profound it could change the world.” – Paul Hochman, Fast Company
