hi everybody,
i am trying to get my E5330 connected to my debian squeeze (2.6.32-5-686)
without usb_codeswith it shows,
Code: Select all
Bus 004 Device 003: ID 12d1:14fe Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
i have installed USB_MODESWITCH, and after plug in my E5330 it showing now :
Code: Select all
Bus 004 Device 003: ID 12d1:1506 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. E398 LTE/UMTS/GSM Modem/Networkcard
but in the E5330 config says, it should be 12d1:1c20.
how can i switch 14fe to 1c20 instead 1506?

I don't know where you have got that config file from, I can not find it in any usb_modeswitch data package from the last 3 years.
12d1:14fe can only switch to 12d1:1506, 12d1:1c20 is like 12d1:14fe a default (initial) id and not a target id.

1c20 is a product ID of the modem itself. if i connect to windows i can see the PID is 1c20. sorry for the confusion.

I find that strange..
12d1:1c20 has only got 1 interface and it is a storage interface for the virtual cd-rom containing the windows install package.
https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread. ... ere/page13
The default id and target id pairs are decided by the mfgr, they may be different for the same E-model depending on the market they are sold on but a default id nowadays is only a default id and never reused as target id.
What kind of interfaces does windows device manager show for 12d1:1c20?
Edit:
12d1:14fe has 2 storage interfaces, the virtual cd-rom and the tf-card while 12d1:1c20 only has the virtual cd-rom, it could be that the modem changes its default id when a tf-card is inserted. Did you do that?

sorry , it is my bad
its shows the PID for the storage PARTITION. not the modem.
So thats a good thing? i am using wicd, and it doesn't show the mobile broadband tab. how can i set it up in WICD?

Yes Windows tends to show the old id with the storage interface even after the id has gone.
There is one more possibility why windows detects it under a different id:
This modem/router is also sold as Vodafone R205 and it is listed with the 12d1:1c20 id in the usb.ids database and with the description "R205 (charging)". May be that it is given a different default id to prevent switching when the battery is flat.
12d1:1506, the target id you got is an id with many different interface layouts, varies from model to model.
Most of the Huawei MiFi routers uses cdc_ncm as driver, ie a direct ethernet interface and not a ppp dial-up modem interface. They use to give out an ip address via DHCP , 192.168.1.100 is most common and there use to be an internal webserver at 192.168.1.1 for configuring the device.
I need to see the output from lsusb -v -d 12d1:1506 after the device has switched id in order to tell you for sure.

yes it is an ncm device , the 4 interfaces are:
If#0 diagnostics
If#1 cdc_ncm (+ cdc_wdm)
If#2 user AT cmd
If#3 storage
it needs the cdc_ncm and the cdc_wdm drivers, cdc_ncm will create a /dev/wwan0 ethernet data interface while cdc_wdm will create /dev/cdc-wdm0 for commands.
You should see them bind to interface 1 in your log (dmesg) after loading these two modules.
NetworkManager can handle these two created devices, I have no knowledge of WICD so you'll have to look it up yourself.

thanks LOM, its very informative.
as i am a noob, i uninstall wicd and install network manager. i added
Allow hotplug wwan0
Iface wwan0 inet dhcp
Do i have to do anything else?

How do I load these two drivers? I don't see a wwan0 interface, even after the modeswitch.

Start with checking your system log (dmesg) , search for usb.
It will show you if drivers load when the dongle has switched mode.
