Hi Ermal,
I'm in Australia.
I have 2 x Huawei E220 modems - one with a provider called "3" and the other "Optus".
I suspect that they may appear identically as the same hardware, though I am aware of them using different rf frequencies.
I'd be happy to help out by building a box for you to use, but need more info on how it needs to be set up - please email me - james at thereidsonline.com with details.
Thanks!

first the we need to patch pfsense to support the e220 (and same for additional usb 3g devices, including pcmcia ones that appear as usb, other pcmcia should appear as a serial port). http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=usb/118686 is patch for e220
then pfsense needs to support ppp connections , this should be easier as it has everything it needs except the webgui interface. i.e. it has pptp and pppoe support for wan. possibly there should be an advanced option to set AT commands to allow better support.

I have access now to a 3G sprint USB card. I plan on taking this bounty.
Please if you have offered cash towards this please let me know that you are still interested.
Thanks!
PS: this will also add "dial up modem" support as well.When you say dial-up modem support, does that include a dial-up server? As in, could it be used for people to dial in to the pfsense box to gain access to the network?
