        To set up the UML295 you should do the following:

        On your Windows 7 PC follow these instructions to enable IP passthrough: http://pcdn2-download.vzw.com/win/UML295/UML295_IPPT_UserGuide-v2.pdf

        1. Plug the UML295 into the pfsense box
        2. Go to the Interfaces drop down and click (assign)
        3. Select the ue0 Interface from the Available network ports dropdown and press the add button
        4. Enable the interface'
        5. Select DHCP for the IPv4 dropdown and save
        6. Apply the configuration

        At this point the interface should work.

        You may want to ensure that it still works after a reboot, as I've found that it will not.
