Airtel huawei E3372 datacard fix for OS X EL Capitan 10.11

In my organisation we have Airtel 4G dongles which we assign to our users so that they work from home too. But these dongles were showing some problem after upgrade to new OS X El Capitan. After a deep research, drivers were not compatible and Airtel didn't have new drivers for OS X 10.11.

So here is the way to fix it and make it compatible device for OS X 10.11.

Installation

Go to Huawei Support Site (consumer.huawei.com).
Click on Support and Search for your device model. In my case, i searched for E3372.
Click on Your Device image and Click on Update on left bottom corner.
Download "Stick Mobile Partner(for MAC10.11)"
Extract it and Install it. (No rocket science in it.)


Create Airtel Profile

After installation make sure your device is connected to the system, you will see a green colour icon on your dock. And Application will launch after installation.
You will notice that there would be nothing in Profile List. 
Just click on "Connect". And you will a prompt that no profile is selected and it will ask you to create a one.
Click on "New" to create a new profile and named it as i did "Airtel 3G".
Put "airtelgprs.com" in APN and select it as static.
In Account number, mention *99#.
Click "OK".
Click on "Connect". And you will the magic.
You are connected to Internet.

Thank you.
