back again ... just wanted to get some info ...
My device is running fine after installing network-manager-gnome and connecting my device through the same. However my OS Deepin 15.4.1 still lacks native support as this device still fails to populate in the OS's network device list.
However my OS uses the 'wwp0s26u1u5i6' interface instead of 'wwan' ... Initially my device used to connect as wwp0s26u1u5i6 interface, this let me monitor traffic/bandwidth through a combination of 'vnstat' & a great conky script.
All of a sudden, since the last few days, vnstat has stopped recording the wwp0s26u1u5i6 interface ... my conky stopped displaying network info as a result.
My Mobile Broadband continues to work however and i am writing this post through the same connection.
Deepin's native 'network details' settings shows this device's interface as 'ttyUSB0' ... i guess that explains 'vnstat' and conky network info dysfunctional.
Is it possible to manually switch to 'wwp0s26u1u5i6' interface instead of the current 'ttyUSB0' interface ?
