  1. I am not sure if 14.04 would be different from 13.10 in this matter, but in my 13.10 installation, and with Huawei EC1260 (device shown in lsusb for my Reliance Netconnect dongle), I never had to install any driver or dialer.

    Cold start your computer.
    Insert the dongle.
    Wait till a message pops up near the indicator panel about a new device.

    Then click the network icon in the indicator panel and you will see new device entry - click that.

    Follow the images below - select India in country, select Reliance in ISP.

    Click on Apply will show popup message about registering the home network.

    Now click on network icon again and open Edit Connections.

    Select Reliance and click Edit.

    In the Mobile Broadband tab enter your 10 digit mobile number both in the username and password.

    Now click indicator panel network icon again and click on Reliance Connection... you should be connected...
