Hi,
I'm using a Huawei K3765 UMTS stick. I got it working using usb_modeswitch and
a specific 'MessageContent'. After that the device changes its usb id and can
be used as a modem.
Now I want this stick to be supported by Fedora out of the box so I was
looking around where I need to send patches. As this kind of hardware has an
enormous amount of bugs/specific quirks, there are some projects that deal
specifically with these topics:
- usb_modeswitch
-> very specialised, not used by NetworkManager
- modem-modeswitch (udev)
-> very limited functionality, 'option-zerocd' does not help for my device
- ModemManager
-> as far as I can see no support for switching usb ids.
-> however this software is made to support hardware quirks
So which software should I tackle in order to get my device supported?
