Bug Description

If you create access to the Internet using usb modem ZTE MF667 then the network periodically breaks.
After connecting the modem ZTE MF 667 works extremely unstable. If when loading using a torrent client then the network is stable, if you just look for information on the Internet, that is not stable (that disconnection occur very
often).

Confirm - the operating system does not see the modem because tethering Huawei E3531 cd-flash. Specifically usb-modeswitch not automatically switches the device to the modem mode.

Confirm the problem is that the device does not automatically switches to the modem (no udev rules for this modem are in / etc / udev / rules.d.)
