Nitin

When you run
slmodemd --countrylist
the first column is the hexadecimal country code of the COUNTRY in the
2nd column.
For example in the output line
     53:    INDIA
53 is the hexadecimal representing India.
You need to find from your phone service what the hexadecimal country
code for Nepal is.  Likely some other Country in the output will and
you can use that Country_Name instead of NEPAL. The guidance in
http://www.linuxnepal.com.np/articles/view/index.php?id=114
is not adequate on this issue

For example, should the NEPAL hexadecimal luckily be 53
you could use:
$ sudo slmodemd -c NEPAL /dev/slamr0

Note that when you reboot into Linux, you will have to manually creat
/dev/slamr0  with:
$ sudo mknod -m 660 /dev/slamr0 c 242 0
The Smartlink test explains how to automate this step however.
