I am having problems with a USB GSM modem (ZTE MF110). When plugged in, the device registers as SCSI CDROM (19d2:2000). When "eject"ed, it registers as a GSM modem (19d2:0031) with three associated devices: /dev/ttyUSB{0,1,2}. Well into a ppp connection (4-5 hours), the connection to the 3g uplink sometimes dies and all three devices unregister. A new USB device (19d2:0016) registers with associated /dev/ttyUSB0. The modem remains unoperational until it is physically removed and re-plugged. At the time of the problem my logs show a series of "XactErr len 0/4096" type messages but ppp's logs show no special control packets being sent (logs attached below). System specs: udev 168 and kernel 3.3.6. Modem uses usbserial & usb_wwan kernel modules. Connection established with ppp 2.4.5 and link helper wvdial or chat. Would greatly appreciate help and suggestions on how to further debug and identify the source of the problem. ~ Andy ehci_hcd 0000:02:07.2: detected XactErr len 0/4096 retry 1 ehci_hcd 0000:02:07.2:
