Apparently people have managed to get this modem working on the NSLU2 under different firmware ie openWRTso it seems like a Debian issue, I did find this.... It is a conflict between usb-storage and the option module. You should disable the usb-storage for the mode. However I need the usb-storage module as I'm using a usb hard disk. More info.... HUAWEI E220 is supported natively by Linux, over usbserial.ko (usbserial-generic) interface. Linux kernel versions prior to 2.6.20 have some problems with it. > Date: Mon, 7 Dec 2009 11:56:02 +0100 > From: wouter@debian.org > To: brianplatt@hotmail.com > CC: debian-arm@lists.debian.org > Subject: Re: E220 Modem > > On Sat, Dec 05, 2009 at 09:48:37PM +0000, Brian Platt wrote: > > I've been trying for ages to try and get my T-Mobile E220 modem working on my > > Linksys NSLU2 but I can't for love nor money and hoping someone on here can > > help me, here's some info.... > > Perhaps the NSLU2 is just too slow to be able to manage the data rate > properly? > > I've been having similar issues with a USB GigE NIC that I tried > connecting to my NSLU2.
