I have a T-Mobile USB 615 dongle, which is a Huawei E173. It does not work out of the box with 10.04. The dongle has both mobile broadband and data storage abilities, and ubuntu mounts it as data storage only. I have managed to get it working with a bit of command line modification. It does not work with 11.04 either, this time it is mounted as a simple wireless LAN dongle which automatically connects to my home network just like the internal wireless card (which I turned off when the dongle is connected). I haven't bothered trying to get it to work as a 3G mobile broadband unit as I always use the 10.04 machine when I'm away from home.
