Sorry for late reply...

Well can you post dmesg message after plugging the modem device...? you need to insert the message in [code][/code] so it is easy to follow...

You need also to post lsusb message...

PS: I am just testing the current feature...I am using Windows now...

ls "list segments" is a shell (xterm/console) command

To my surprise, the PCMCIA card is treated by the Linux kernel as a USB device (huh).

Neccessary kernel module is "usbserial"
and additionaly "option" wich seem to work with huawei K3715 (e180v) also. (http://www.option.com/)
To see if they are loaded use

Code:

(sudo (if in non-root-mode)) lsmod | grep usbserial

and

Code:

lsmod | grep option

at a console/xterm.
If the output stays empty you have to load them by

Code:

(sudo) modprobe usbserial

and

Code:

modprobe option

Further you need the programs "nm-applet"+"nm-connection-editor" or "pupdial" for example.
These programs normaly need "wvdial".
They can be installed by "(sudo) apt-get install wvdial" and "wget wvdial".
The APN has to be googled. INIT-script for wvdial/pupdial or nm-connection-editor are found here also on LQ.
