<div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">You can try to do a simple thing: when the modem is recognized as a USB storage, use the "eject" command to get out of storage mode and see if this improves the time until it becomes 3G modem.</div>

<div><div>I have the ZTE MF637 on Orange and I use it with my Laptop which runs Ubuntu 10.10. </div><div>Lately I've upgraded from 9.04 to 10.10 (clean install actually) and though the modem do connect its take awful lot of time for the OS to mount it as a 3G modem. </div>
<div><br></div><div>The hardware recognition is almost Immediate and lsusb gives :</div><blockquote style="margin:0 0 0 40px;border:none;padding:0px"><div><div>Bus 001 Device 004: ID 19d2:0031 ONDA Communication S.p.A. ZTE MF636</div>

<div><br></div><div>Any one got an idea as for why and how to fix that? on 9.04 it also took some time but it was about 20-40 seconds, while now I'm counting in minutes.</div><div><br></div><br clear="all">Nitzan Brumer<br>
