Hello,
The
 user manual supplied with the device says the requirement of gcc & 
kernel-devel (or, corresponding kernel development package of the 
distribution) to be installed.
In
 my system gcc is already installed and I was unable to identify the 
kernel development package. usb-modeswitch is already installed.
As I plug in my device, it is recognized as a storage device...not as a modem. 
Please help me in this regard.
Regards
