When I connected the Huawei modem <\/a>I could see only \u00a03 additional sg0 ,sg1, sdb \u00a0entries in \u00a0 \/dev \u00a0and there are no USBtty0 ,USBtty1,USBtty2 which supposed to be cerated by Huawei modem .<\/p>\n

By default linux will detect HUAWEI modem as usb storage \/cd drive . we must switch it to USB serial inorder to use it as modem .<\/p>\n

you can do this with usb_modswitch . \u00a0If you dont find usb_modswitch in \/lib\/udev you can install it from here.<\/a><\/p>\n

\/lib\/udev\/usb_modeswitch –vendor 0x12d1 –product 0x1446 –type option-zerocd<\/p>\n

You can create config file in\u00a0\/etc\/udev\/rule.d\/15huawei-1773.rules<\/p>\n

SUBSYSTEM==”usb”, SYSFS{idProduct}==”1446″, SYSFS{idVendor}==”12d1″, RUN+=”\/lib\/udev\/usb_modeswitch –vendor 0x12d1 –product 0x1446 –type option-zerocd”<\/p>\n

Restart the system and check \u00a0 lsusb -vvvv | less and note down product id and vendor id information .<\/p>\n

You can add this information in\u00a0\/etc\/modprobe.d\/modprobe.conf.<\/p>\n

My\u00a0\/etc\/modprobe.d\/modprobe.conf \u00a0has single line like below<\/p>\n

options usbserial vendor=0x12d1 product=0x140c<\/p>\n

Now load the usb serial with command \u00a0modprobe usbserial<\/p>\n
