To solve this matter i would like to know which model of the plug 2 surf modem are you using so that i can help you in this matter. Since all the models of the plug 2 surf modem modem are not compatible with Ubuntu 9.04 operating system. Hope you got my point and you will post the model number in your future replies.

As far as i think you will have to install the drivers for the same because the drivers of windows XP will not work in this case. you can download it from the tataindicom official website or simply click the link www.tataphoton.com .

simply log on the tata indicom and then click the TATA PHOTON and then select tata photon plus.

Also you can take help from the pdf file which is attached with the thread. i would also suggest you to download it. But before that also remember to download the drivers from the tata indicom website.
