Orange Modem on Linux

Here is how it goes on linux mint and I think this will work for Ubuntu as well:

First,Connect your Usb Modem to your machine and ensure the words
"Orange connection" appear as one of the connectivity options when you
click on the networkk Icon

For some reason,unknown yet to me,this takes an awfully long time in my machine.
As a critic,i would term it unacceptable however desperation calls for
measures equal

Once that happens,edit the connections information
Right click on network icon>>Edit Connections
Choose the broadband tab

Choose "Orange connection" or whatever name you have named your connection
Click on it and click Edit

You should see a screen like this:



The username is orangefixedplus which comes up by default

For the password field use "orange" This is the password that
you use inorder to be authenticated by the orange network

Once you are done close the window to save your changes.

Click on the network icon and choose your "Orange Connection"
or the name you gave your broadband connection and voila!
This should be happy surfing..
