Did you check out the generic guide[1] for USB WWAN modems? It looks pretty consistent from when I set up a Gobi 3G card years ago. I got lazy and use tethering. |

|

This FAQ[2] walks you through a manual configuration of a Huawei WWWAN to test the concept. |
67 |
|
68 |
You will need to know you SIM PIN if used and certainly your APN for your Cell Provider. |

|
70 |
That ww* interface is auto-created and can be used with different configuration/managnement tools[3]. |

Good Luck! |
