  Hm, that did not quite work:

ubsa0 at uhub1 port 1
ubsa0: HUAWEI Technologies HUAWEI Mobile, rev 1.10/0.00, addr 2
usbd_set_config_index: illegal index
ubsa0: failed to set configuration: INVAL

  The relevant lines from usba.c:

#define UBSA_CONFIG_INDEX       1

        /* Move the device into the configured state. */
        err = usbd_set_config_index(dev, UBSA_CONFIG_INDEX, 1);


  I got the above error both with the device fresh out of the box and
after I used it once on Windows, entering the PIN code.  (It worked
under Windows, giving me an internet connection.)

  Any ideas?
