Bug Description
ZTE-MF633 3G modem isn't detected Ubuntu 9.10 until I create a file named /etc/modprobe.
options usbserial vendor=0x19d2 product=0x0031
When I add "options usbserial vendor=0x19d2 product=0x0031" then ZTE-MF633 3G modem is detected by Network-Manager but only if modem is plugged-in during Ubuntu startup. If I plug in ZTE-MF633 3G modem when Ubuntu is started, then it doesn't appear in Network-Manager even if file /etc/modprobe.
See http://
Btw, this bug may be related to bug #408555 (ZTE MF636 3G modem cannot used in Karmic) - it seems both modems (MF633 and MF636) has the same USB ID: 19d2:0031
Btw, ZTE-MF633 3G modem works only if PIN code is turned off in SIM card - Ubuntu 9.10 doesn't offer to enter PIN code even if file /etc/modprobe. d/zte-mf633. conf with line "options usbserial vendor=0x19d2 product=0x0031" exist.
I'm attaching the zte-mf633.conf file to this bugreport - it seems I should include this file into baltix- default- settings package for Baltix 9.10 (Karmic)
Ubuntu developers, please tell me if "options usbserial vendor=0x19d2 product=0x0031" setting in /etc/modprobe.d/ can cause any problems in Ubuntu 10.04, because I don't wanna to create problems for our users when they will upgrade Baltix 9.10 to Ubuntu 10.04.
