I'm using Tata Photon Plus (Huawei EC1260) and it used to work perfectly with WinXP
I switched to Win7 Professional recently and since then, it has stopped working.
Has anyone faced this problem?
Any ideas as to how to fix it.

INFO: The computer detects it as only a "USB Mass Storage Device". It doesn't detect the network/modem part of it. I've tried reinstalling,restarting,changing usb ports and the like; and nothing has worked.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance. :)

It works fine on a friends 64 bit machine.
Also did you install drivers and other software from the Cd that came with the dongle?

I tried that, didn't work. But when I installed drivers from the Reliance thing of same model, it suddenly started working. WEIRD!

Here's the link for reference of anyone who may face the same problem as I did

For those who prefer not clicking on direct download links, you can go to Reliance Wireless Internet Broadband Connection – Reliance Netconnect Connection and click on Downloads

Anyways, thanks a lot.

Strange. But drivers are same for same device irrespective of carrier. Glad that it is solved :)
