I am trying to connect to the Internet via my photon+ from the past day and have tried various suggestions on the Internet and have tried to zero in to the main cause of the problem which is that my device is not detected.

I have tried the following ways:

1) After connecting the device, I tried to create a mobile broadband connection via System > Preferences > Network Connections and selected tata photon plus. But there was no connection.

2) I did sudo apt-get install usb-modeswitch-data and sudo apt-get install usb-modeswitch

But the prompt said that they are at their newest version.

3) I tried to edit the file sudo gedit /etc/usb_modeswitch.d/12d1:1446, but this file did not exist.

4) my lsusb output is

nikhil@nikhil:~$ lsusb Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 005 Device 003: ID 22f4:0021

Any Ideas ??
