[Bug 1441285] Re: Regression: Huawei E173 no longer recognized as a modem

 

** Description changed:

  My Huawei E173 modem is not recognized as a modem anymore after
  installing Ubuntu 15.04 and Mainline kernel 4.0 RC6. It worked out of
  the box with Ubuntu 14.10.
  
  I tried various guides (editing /etc/modules and
  /lib/udev/rules.d/40-usb_modeswitch.rules) but none of them worked. I
  finally stumbled upon a script (https://gist.github.com/rehno-
  lindeque/4500517) that made the modem usable (recognized by Network
- Manager)
+ Manager), which does:
+ 
+ usb_modeswitch -v 0x12d1 -p 0x1446 -M
+ 55534243000000000000000000000011060000000000000000000000000000 -V 0x12d1
+ -P 0x1436 -s 50 -m 0x01
  
  The downside is, I have to run the script every time i plug the modem
  in, would like a permanent solution.
