Huawei has released an update, but our local network provider is showing

firmware.
I have chatted to the tech support, and they say 'Sorry we only support
Windows'. As far as I know, they have no intention of releasing the
update.
Sorry to hear this, you might want to dig around, the firmware is
floating around out there :)

As I said, I am running the updated firmware, but it does not have the
operator specifc extensions for 7.2Mbps support. We will only get this
if our network operator ever releases an update.
Anyway, the point I was trying to make is that there are situations when
you _really_ want to blacklist a device, and it seems to me that udevd
is the ideal place to do it...
Thanks,
