Public bug reported:
My Huawei E173 UMTS-Stick is only detected as a mass storage device so I can't
connect to the internet with Ubuntu 13.10.
It works great with Ubuntu 13.04
lsusb:
Bus 002 Device 006: ID 12d1:1446 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
E1552/E1800/E173 (HSPA modem)
I tried to add "usbserial ...." into the /etc/modules, but that didn't
help.
Also this USB device is already included in
/lib/udev/rules.d/40-usb_modeswitch.rules
# Huawei, newer modems
ATTRS{idVendor}=="12d1", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1446", RUN+="usb_modeswitch
