      If it has 2 (or more) usb config indexes you can force it to use a different one using a usb quirk option.

      Try running usbconfig dump_all_desc against it.

        Thanks Steve,

        In the attached file, you can find the usbconfig dump_all_desc output.

        How can I use the quirk option?

        Best,

          Ok, so that device has 3 config indexes:

          All show as mass storage devices though...

          Try setting it manually first:
          usbconfig ugen4.2 set_config 2
          Or 1.

          Though it looks like you might have the C1 variant from the usbmodeswitch forum discussion.

            Thanks Steve,

            when I tried usbconfig ugen4.2 set_config 2, I got the following message;

            usbconfig - configure the USB subsystem
            usage: usbconfig -u <busnum> -a <devaddr> -i <ifaceindex> [cmds...]
            usage: usbconfig -d [ugen]<busnum>.<devaddr> -i <ifaceindex> [cmds...]
            commands:
            set_config <cfg_index>
            .
            .

            then I tried the following;

            usbconfig -d ugen4.2 set_config 0
            usbconfig -d ugen4.2 set_config 1
            usbconfig -d ugen4.2 set_config 2

            however they didn't work, still shows as cd0

            Best,

              btw, when I was searching something useful in the USB stick, this is what I found,

              intallation config file

              DefaultVendor= 0x2001
              DefaultProduct= 0xa407

              TargetVendor= 0x2001
              TargetProduct= 0x7d0e

              MagicId=2ds2dse5w885d5d5we5d2d2d5sd4dgg4fdfd5

              AutoRun=1

              I tried to use the MagicId as MessageContent with USB_switch, however it didn't work.

              Is there a way to convert the MagicId to MessageContent?

              Best,

              Savas

                Ah sorry missed the -d switch. Ok well if you have the C1version you will need to use usb_modeswitch.

                Is the message content not in it already?

                It may not help you though because neither of those IDs is known to pfSense/FreeBSD:
                https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-src/blob/ff7d4801f1b88de656e028209818ff005e8a1353/sys/dev/usb/usbdevs#L1663

                  Unfortunately there is no message content. I found this cryptic MagicId, however it didn't work.

                  btw, TargetVendor and TargetProduct are there,

                  731 vendor DLINK 0x2001 D-Link
                  813 product ABIT AK_020 0x7d0e 3G modem

                    Mmm, but that product is from a different vendor so it will not match.

                    If you manage to make this work it will be via bunch of workarounds that may fail. I recommend using a different modem if you can.

                        If it is the C1 version it just needs to be ejected anyway:
                        https://github.com/NetworkManager/usb_modeswitch-data/blob/master/usb_modeswitch.d/2001:a407

                        And then it may appear as a usb Ethernet device which you can use directly. There are issues with that though.

                            I also tried usb_modeswitch -v 2001 -p a407 -K -W, however it didn't generate any verbose output.

                            and this is what I see on the system log,

                            basically when I run usb_modeswitch -v 2001 -p a407 -K -W, it ejects cd0 and turns into da0, not modem.

                            Best,

                              Mmm, it sure looks like a C1 version in many ways. You see anything else in the system log after you do that?

                              Try running usbconfig dump_all_desc against it after you have ejected it to change it's mode like LOM suggested.

                                  so these are the interfaces after the camcontrol eject cd0 command.

                                  MI_00 D-Link Mobile Broadband Device (Network Adapter) (cdc_mbim)
                                  MI_02 D-Link HSPA+DataCard Diagnostics Interface (also ppp dialup modem)
                                  MI_03 D-Link HSPA+DataCard NMEA Device
                                  MI_04 D-Link HSPA+DataCard Speech Port
                                  MI_05 D-Link HSPA+DataCard Debug Port
                                  MI_06 USB Mass Storage Device

                                  So I understand as follows,

                                  Since the drivers are not available in pfSense/BSD for the interfaces from 0 to 5, when I do camcontrol eject cd0, it uses the 6th interface (USB Mass Storage Device)

                                  Thoughts?

                                  Best,

                                    Yes, only interfaces 2 and 3 would otherwise be available if u3g attached to them.

                                    The usbconfig output should show those interfaces though even if no driver does attach.

                                    I have upvoted some of your posts which should stop akismet triggering but it does seem have a mind of it's own. We have almost no control over it.

                                        @stephenw10 said in D-Link DWM-157 USB Stock not recognized:

                                        Yes, only interfaces 2 and 3 would otherwise be available if u3g attached to them.

                                        The usbconfig output should show those interfaces though even if no driver does attach.

                                        I have upvoted some of your posts which should stop akismet triggering but it does seem have a mind of it's own. We have almost no control over it.

                                          Yep, it really looks like that is a C1 device mislabelled. But that is still not recognised by u3g even is the most recent FreeBSD. https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/blob/master/sys/dev/usb/usbdevs

                                          It's probably relatively easy to add it. The serial interfaces are there they just need to be attached but that's not something I can do. To add new devices requires rebuilding the kernel and hence it's only really practical to do in FreeBSD rather then in pfSense. Those changes usually happen there first and are brought into pfSense though it does happen the other way on occasion.

                                          It's still easier to use a different modem.

                                            Thanks Steve, how can I ask FreeBSD community to add this device? For some reason, this is/used to be a popular device in the region I live (middle east) and it would be nice to add it for the future users. Meanwhile I will try with a Huawei E173.
