Comment 54 for bug 1070006

I am also not able to use USB modem from Huawei. It is a Huawei EC1261 HSIA device.

Following are the o/p of dmesg after device put in port

#dmesg

and o/p after #modprobe usbserial vendor=0x12d1 product=0x1446

it runs successfully and then

# wvdialconf
Editing `/etc/wvdial.conf'.

Scanning your serial ports for a modem.

ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- failed with 2400 baud, next try: 9600 baud
ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- failed with 9600 baud, next try: 115200 baud
ttyS0<*1>: ATQ0 V1 E1 -- and failed too at 115200, giving up.
Modem Port Scan<*1>: S1 S2 S3

Sorry, no modem was detected! Is it in use by another program?
Did you configure it properly with setserial?
