I got the HUAWEI E182E to work on two laptops with the following
procedure.
1) gksu gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/15-huawei-e182e.rules
2) Paste and save the following
SUBSYSTEM==”usb”,
SYSFS{idProduct}==”1446″,
SYSFS{idVendor}==”12d1″,
RUN+=”/lib/udev/modem-modeswitch -v 0x12d1 -p 0×1446 -t option-zerocd”
3) Restart computer (or at least udev)
After this it still didnt work, so I tried to also
4) sudo apt-get install usb-modeswitch
and after next insert of the modem it was found and all I had to do was
to add a new mobile broadband internet connection for HUAWEI in the
connection manage and it worked just fine. Of course I don't know if
step 1-3 is actually necessary or not, but I thought I better write too
much info than too little. :)
Interestingly enough, the memorystick part of the modem is still visible
and reachable/browsable as a CD, but it properly switches from :1446 to
:14ac and works just fine as a modem as well at the same time. Maybe
this has to do with the presence of the micro sd slot on the modem.
