This seems fixed in 10.10. I picked a MF662 a few months ago when I unsuccessfully tried to get a MF622 working on Lucid. But the reception on the MF662 is terrible compared to the MF622 (and the antenna connector is wired only for GSM), so today I decided to take another shot. I plugged the MF622 and booted up; it was recognized properly and KDE's network manager automatically established my already setup connection.
Unplugging and plugging back in also works, any times in any port: Dec 23 21:54:49 server usb_modeswitch: switching 19d2:2000 (Qualcomm, Incorporated: USB ZTE Storage) Dec 23 21:55:18 server kernel: [ 2985.540194] usb 6-1: USB disconnect, address 4 Dec 23 21:55:23 server kernel: [ 2990.821315] usb 6-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 5 Dec 23 21:55:23 server kernel: [ 2990.993420] option 6-1:1.0: GSM modem (1-port) converter detected Though as you can see it takes around 30 secs for usb_modeswitch to do it's trick, and another 30 until it appears in the network manager, but this was the same with the MF662. Curiously, lsusb reports the device as " ID 19d2:2000 ONDA Communication S.p.A. ZTE MF627/MF628/MF628+ HSDPA" before usb_modeswitch, and as "ID 19d2:0001 ONDA Communication S.p.A." after, but who cares, it works! ;) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/305968 Title: 3G ZTE MF622 modem does not work with static hal FDIs -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
