From: आनंद (Anand M R) libld.so@gmail.com I've used the cyberoamLinux client with with exactt connection.
Thanks for the pointers Anand, cyberoamLinux is my next hope now!

I use linc, and it works great. Simple to configure too.
This is my config:
srvaddr = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx srvport = 6060 password = xxx username = xxx hwaddr = xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
Save it as /etc/lincrc and you should be done.
Rohan, we tried just that, initially lincdaemon cribbed about not finding /root/.lincrc file, when we copied /etc/lincrc as /root/.lincrc, we still kept getting connection timed out. :-(. we used the latest version of linc-daemon. also, is the serveraddr is the same as the gateway IP that you see on Windows? (some 10.x.x.x?)

I was a long time user of this ISP. It sucks. The speeds are quite good but the support for Linux sucks. You have to pursuade (beg / threaten or whatever) their non existant tech support. The cyberoam client that they provide for linux is pathetic. It seg faults all the time. If Linc-daemon doesnt work then it means the protocol has changed.
Thats what I also feared, but have some renewed hope seeing that it has worked with both linc daemon and cyberoam.
Anyways, shall try this weekend, and let you guys know.
Thanks again to all of you for the prompt replies.
p.s. maybe we should have a wiki page with details of any successful and working configs for various ISP's and connection methods. (ppp, wvdial, etc etc) I have compiled a list of wvdial.conf settings and some for kppp, but since I dont have all these accounts, I cannot confirm/test if they are really OK.
