hi mparaeja
from your info from the lsusb there is
CDC Ethernet:
iMacAddress 4 64995DFA3356
bmEthernetStatistics 0x00000000
wMaxSegmentSize 22528
wNumberMCFilters 0x0000
bNumberPowerFilters 0
have you tried to configure Network Manager ,edit VPN connections ,to set up this wired interface
with a mac address highlighted in blue
or tried to set the auto connect

Latest info 12/12/2010 Verizon
4G LTE Data-stick Mac/Linux/Windows-other authentication information.

The following information has been released publicly by VZW advanced support so I feel I can share this now:
If you want to use the UML290 on the Mac/Linux/UNIX/other-platforms you can now do so if you have the engineering knowledge or a little know-how:
Quick Notes: Verizon 4G LTE uses the GSM APN authentication method through a GGSN (similar to AT&T) and 3G (1X/EVDO) traditional uses the HA CDMA method. The old CDMA authentication method has been posted years before so I won't repost that.
You WILL NOT GET SUPPORT UNTIL THE OFFICIAL VZACCESS Software comes out on the Mac.
4G LTE GSM General Device Settings-
Phone Number: PhoneNumber
Account name: PhoneNumber@vzw4g.com
Password: vzw
Advanced Settings-
Carrier: Generic
Model: GPRS (GSM/3G)
APN: vzwinternet
CID: 1
Click OK, then connect and enjoy.
So on the Mac connection manager (generic apple), make a profile for your UML290 hardware, should be a modem. Make a GSM connection profile with the above. Phone number is your data-stick phone number (fake phone number, used for system identification, get it from VZAccess or your account page online). Account name is "phonenumber@vzw4g.com". (Basically add @vzw4g.com to your phonenumber. Password is "vzw", same as 3g CDMA. In GSM/3G/4G carrier use generic (no special parameters). Model is GPRS (GSM/3G, same as 4G). GSM APN is "vzwinternet". CID is 1 if your drivers need it.
Enjoy 4G LTE GSM technology by VZW on your Mac! I will be running this on my Linux engineering dev machine soon. Finally I LOVE YOU VZW!
Oh and if you're just installing it without a Windows machine using it at least once, your SIM card has to be provisioned by VZW support or a store...
If you want a visual Mac guide:

Official VZW support (replace the inetgsm.vzw3g.com APN used for overseas roaming with the 4g APN used domestically as listed above):
Mac: http://support.vzw.com/clc/devices/k....html?id=30063
Windows XP/Vista/7 (If you don't want to use VZAccess): http://support.vzw.com/clc/devices/k....html?id=29355
Username/Password/Everything as said above applies, replace as needed.
NO VZAccess on Mac yet, check your data usage on vzw.com my account... The SMS warning messages should work since it's a standard GSM 3G/4G implementation by VZW if you can get a Mac/Linux app that watches for SMS from the data modem driver interface.
Verizon will probably add a second APN for smart-phones when they come out with LTE chips. Example: The "vzwinternet" APN gives you a public IP address as that's mean't for data-sticks. They will probably use something (I'm just guessing here) like "advdevice" for smart-phones and that will give the smart-phone a private IP address (10.x.x.x) like the current CDMA HA's do. With APN data traffic separation VZW with 4G GSM tech. can manage traffic volumes better with bandwidth limits, etc. AT&T/T-Mobile are doing the same now and it has recently been implemented on the legacy CDMA HA's also. Also firewalling, security.
Summarized for wvdial . in part may look like , all similar to any 3g connection
Updated 13 Jan 2011 ; ref cd usb-rndis-lite
Although I removed : possible meanings of LTE ( possible true 4g speed ) may be on the cdc ethenet interface : this looks as if confirmed
and the comment (Summarized for wvdial . in part may look like , all similar to any 3g connection)
Recommend : Read these links it may indicate how to get connected on True 4g interface CDC-ETHERNET , this type of interface should allow faster speeds than the standard acm driver
http://community.vzw.com/t5/4G-Discu...-p/358310#M435
then look at solutions on how to bring up the interface

As regards the cd usb-rndis-lite/
have a look at this thread
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=869229
Reason for removal of previous info ( Post #13 by willzzz) . looks as if this info gives a standard connection of the likes of 3g ,but using the faster speed rate of acm
this tends to make me look at some devices which are loading option driver, but have greater baud rates available than the standard 115200
and possible reason the claimed speeds are not attained: Always check if there are Kernel Patches Available for your devices. if available, Check them out
the linux drivers are loaded the relative to the device ID's. IE. the driver modules contain the device ID'S
It will be interesting to find out the speeds of this type of connection (to monitor use netspeed)
Added: reading through the links , looks as if a linux connection should be easier than that of others
and that the Verizon statement of drivers only Available for * , Smacks in the face of Freedom of Use ,
Verizon Should make the sequences (Technical) Publicly Available , that's not Hard Work:
