Bug Description

Using Ubuntu 12.04.1 Lts, 32 bit, Intel core 2 duo processor
I use USB modem for mobile broadband, model micromax MMX352G. I have both Ubuntu and Win Vista on two different partitions. I have noticed that my internet speed on Win vista is far more stable and higher than in Ubuntu. If anyone needs any more information or info from any configuration file please ask.

Thanx to both of you for replying :)

@thomas
I have tried that. In fact I have tried all tweaks listed all over the internet for my device, but they haven't been of much help. bdw, for filing a report in bugzilla do I need to create a new account?

@Dave
I will check it and paste the output here soon.
