This tutorial teaches how to install Reliance Net Connect Data Card on Windows Vista x64.
I recently picked up Huawei Reliance Netconnect datacard from a company outlet in Bengaluru. I currently am on Vista 64 and wanted to make sure if the Reliance Data card was a plug-n-play or if I needed any extra drivers installed on my system to get the net-card up and running. The guys at the counter confirmed that I would be getting all the necessary softwares for Windows Vista, which left me satisfied.
Little did I know, the customer support had no idea what a 64-bit OS was! When I got the net-card, I realized they had given me 32-bit Vista drivers. The whole experience got worse, being a weird OS that Vista 64 is, it didn’t accept my datacard. The worst was yet to come, the official reliance website didn’t have any drivers for 64 bit.
I had no option but hope that Google would solve my problem. As expected the proficient Google did not let me down. My searching skills coupled with my luck I found all the required drivers on some Thailand Hutchison website.
Here’s the link to Reliance Net Connect Data Card drivers for Windows x64.
Download all the necessary drivers on to your system. Quite a catch, since you do not have net connection yet right 
.. You can get it on to your pen drive from the nearest Cyber cafe.
Installing the data card and getting it to work is a very simple process. Must say Reliance folks have Done a great job here.
1> Plug in the datacard and when it asks for the drivers, point to the location where the downloaded drivers are located.
2> Install the dialer software which is packed in the cd-rom.
After installation the application pops up and looks like this.
Now the card is online. The next step is to ‘Create a connection‘.
1> Go to Settings->Network Connection Settings.
2> Select New from the dialog box.
3> Put in the username and password as your phone number.
That’s it, you are all set to rock online!!
The new connection dialog box.
Now there’s another problem with Vista and the dialer software. It keeps on crashing. And there is no known solution to it, atleast not any that I know of. Even though the software crashes, the net connection continues to work fine. The problem is when one wants to disconnect, a re-start of the ’software’ is necessary.
I’m trying to find a working update to this problem. So expect an update to this article soon .

@yatendra
Can you provide the operating system in your DELL laptop? I am assuming it’s a Vista 64-bit and if it is so you have to follow the above mentioned instructions and download the vista drivers from the website that I have given. You can ask the dell customer care to give you the details about your operating system.
@ shiv kumar
The drivers mentioned in the tutorial is for VISTA 64-bit and I think you have a 32-bit Vista. Can you give a little more detail about your system. Thanks
Pse give the link for Vista 32 bit version Home Premium for HP dv9220us notebook.
download drivers and software reliance
i am working with windows vista home premium and i got the same data card. my net connection is good. it dosnt stop . but a pop up comes that hauwai data card has stopped working. details show as APPCRASH. AS USUAL *333 has no good response for the same can any body help
I assume it to be a bug. But did you check if the software disconnects your connection and then crashes?
You can do this by launching the Huawei NetConnect software again and checking if the first icon says Connect or Disconnect.
If it says connect then you have no issues to worry about.
If it says disconnect then you’ll have to either restart the software to disconnect it or manually remove your data card as soon as the software crashes.
Thank you very much for not only providing the solution but also linking the driver software. It saved me a lot of aggravation (even reliance retailers couldn’t help me). I had it up and running in 15 minutes. Thanks again!!!
@Sampth Welcome. Do spread the word around if it was useful
I have the same reliance data card & 64 bit vista. I had the same problem. Now with the driver downloaded from this site, could able detect the data card. I could able to make phone calls from the datacard. but I could not able to connect to the net. when I click on connect, it will show an error message saying eithier problem with wireless device or network setting. checked repeatedly the network setting. but of no use. please some one help me
@Sampath
Keep coming back. 
Thanks for the appreciation.
@Sanjeev
Did you check the network setting? Are they blank? Or do they have some configuration details?
And can you check your datacard on any other XP based PC? That could ascertain if the problem is with your datacard in which case you could ask Reliance for a replacement.
Do come back if the problem is solved.
my computer l windows vista install and they install netconnect driver but when the connected that time they send errors to “checked out your wireless connection” please suggect that problems.

I’ve never come across such a situation. You can check if it is a port conflict.
@Umesh can you be a bit more specific so that I can investigate and try n give you the best possible solution?
hello,
My problem is that the CD has somehow been misplaced and as I got my laptop reformatted, I’ll again have to reinstall it.
Kindly help me out!! Thanks
@ surabhi
You can try and download the drivers online. If you are more specific in terms of what you are looking for, I can tell you what you should look at.
Another option is to go to your local Reliance Com shop and ask if they give you an extra copy. I’m sure they will guide you.

@Manju – It is a temporary glitch. It happens for me at times. When I come across this problem, I normally close the NetConnect application and restart it again. It normally works fine for me. Try that, it might work for you as well.
