I can report that by connecting the modem to a powered hub I got it to work by just insmod usbserial. I managed to create a ppp connection also so it works in principle. Now i just have to figure out how to configure it so it become convenient to use. But the power thing was irritating. The modem has two USB connections and one is only for power. So I connected an USB-battery that can give 700 mA to the power connection and still the N810 said that there was not enough power and failed to start things properly. I wonder if this just is a problem with power requirement detection. Can you disable this detection? I suspect that the modem does not see that it is connected to a battery and therefore reports that it needs a lot of power. -- /Tommy Persson
