    I hope you are also using the same distribution. But installing the debian package did not work. For some reason it failed. I had to do it manually.

    Here are the steps:

    1. Go to folder: /usr/share/usb_modeswitch. In this folder, there is one zipped file: configPack.tar.gz.

    The next step depends on this configPack.tar.gz. So, if you do not have this file, then I suggest you reinstall usb_modeswitch along with the data files from synaptic package manager.

    2. Copy this file into a folder of your choice. Say, home/test.

    Code:
    $ cp /usr/share/usb_modeswitch/configPack.tar.gz /home/test
    3. Then unzip the file configPack.tar.gz
    Code:
    $ cd /home/test 
    $ tar -xvf configPack.tar.gz
    4. After unzipping, invoke the following command:
    Code:
    $ sudo /usr/sbin/usb_modeswitch -I -W -s 10 -c "<path-to>/12d1:1446" -v 12d1 -p 1446
    where <path-to> in this case is /home/test.

    After a few minutes my usb modem switched. Once it has switched, connecting to the Internet is simple. I believe that you can easily figure out the steps.

    sorted in one way , but Can suggest downloading the source files from the site,

    the instructions to install are easy to follow , do know that Debian packages will break Ubuntu version , it is Mentioned at the site.

    before installing source , un-install the Ubuntu version including the data

    see what happens

    Re: modem-manager not working

    Alexfish,

    I uninstalled the usb_modeswitch installed by ubuntu. Then, I downloaded and compiled the code. Now, the modem connects automatically and everythings works fine !!

    So looks like there is a bug in Ubuntu 12.04.

    Thanks

    got exactly the same Problem with the XS Stick P14 (1c9e:9605). After hours of searching for a solution, I did the following:
    1) First tell networtk-manager, he should remember the PIN for the SIM-Card. This will be important for step 3!
    2) Adding the following line in /etc/rc.local:
    Code:
    modprobe usbserial vendor=0x1c9e product=0x9605
    This switches the stick from datastore-mode into the modem-mode.
    3) Added a script with the following in auto-start:
    Code:
    #!/bin/sh
    sleep 75
    nmcli nm wwan on
    This gets around the bug of the network-manager, which disables the mobile broadband after every restart. Don't be suprised about the 75 seconds wait. The USB-Stick takes up to 55 Seconds to initialisize after typing in the pin for the sim. Additionally the networkmanager is launched after the script started and it will need a few seconds to start itself. So adding at this point 20 seconds is safe, you might try up to 10 seconds, but that might fail. Will definitive fail, if you skipped point 1!
    4) (Optional) Configure the mobile connection to connect automatically

    Works so far, but fails, when unplugging the stick. I thought, I'll have to live with this, but then I was searching for something different and found this. I tried your advise which is described in post 11 and now replugging works. OK, it woks not 100% I still have to re-enable mobile broadband, by typing in
    Code:
    nmcli nm wwan on
    but hey, I don't have to restart the whole machine anymore
    you mean edit the "rc.local" file and add the lines anywhere

    I think this is the best solution and works perfectly for 12.04 and it's derivatives like Mint 13 etc.

    It is not a problem. You are typing the password but u cannot see it. This is enabled by default in linux distros to avoid any chance of getting the password by people behind your back.(the normal * would also do the same thing but it will reveal the length of it). So you should type the password as it is and press enter, it will work.
