Comment 54 for bug 449394

Still not working for me.

Mine is a E160 sold bei Medion (Aldi) in Germany as a S4011 web stick. It has

firmware: 11.608.06.00.52
build: 20090728 195006

% lsusb | grep Huaw

Bus 001 Device 007: ID 12d1:1003 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. E220 HSDPA Modem / E270 HSDPA/HSUPA Modem

I am on ubuntu 9.10 with kernel

Linux nepton 2.6.31-19-generic #56-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 28 01:26:53 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux

I tried to upgrade the firmware according to comment #29, but the software wanted a password. I guess the Aussie firmware does not match the one necessary in Germany.

Still hopeful, but I might go looking for another umts modem --- except: which one would work for sure?

Any hints appreciated.

Harald.
