Hello, I have a Huawei USB E220 modem wich works fine almost all the time. But sometimes when I connect, it seems to work OK (led turns continous blue and wvdial shows exactly the same as when the modem connects well, no errors) but there is no connection to the internet, I can't use anything related with the internet, I can't ping google or any web... |

It happens when: |
4 |
1. Sometimes while connected. |
5 |
2. Sometimes connecting (Sometimes randomly or if the 1. case happens, it's for sure modem will hangs up connecting). |
6 |
3. Always if unplug/plug the modem (Even if the computer is poweroff). |

The modem doesn't connect correctly again until I fix it, so I can say the modem "locks" better than "hangs up". The worst and the weird of this problem is the solution; when the modem locks it won't run again until I reboot to Windows, connect to the internet there and reboot again to Gentoo, then the modem works fine again (until next time). |

As you can see that is painful because: |
11 |
1. I need to reboot two times to get online again on Gentoo. |
12 |
2. It makes me have a Windows installation only for unlock my modem! |
13 |
3. It can happens a few times in a day. |

¿Anyone knows a way to unlock the modem on Linux? |
