Huawei K5150 LTE modem not showing as ethernet device
-
Hi
I have a Huawei K5150 LTE modem that I am trying to use on pfSense but it doesn't seem to activate the cdc_ncm and cdc_wdm (or similar) drivers when the device is plugged.
When I plug the device on Linux it is detected correctly and made available as a mobile broadband ethernet connection.
I tried using different usb_modeswitch options and parameters (with no luck) and compared the results and configurations with that of my Linux machine and they appear to be similar. The only difference seems to be that Linux sees the device as a USB ethernet device.
Here is my Linux dmesg output:

Try running
usbconfig -d ugen4.2 set_config 1.If that works you can add a loader usb quirk to make it do that every time.

Thanks
I tried the command and I can see that it changes the device's configuration but it still isn't detected as a USB ethernet device.
-
What is it detected as? I assume the storage device detaches?
You might need the urndis driver for example if that's what it appears as.

You need usb_modeswitch
https://monach.us/operations/usb_modeswitch_on_pfsense/well, not all the instruction there was working for me so after you have installed usb_modeswitch you need to launch
usb_modeswitch -c /usr/local/share/usb_modeswitch/12d1:1f16
where 12d1:1f16 is a file you need to modify, add
DefaultVendor=0x12d1
DefaultProduct=0x1f16something like this should come out

I modified the /usr/local/share/usb_modeswitch/12d1:1f16 file accordingly# Vodafone K5150 TargetVendor=0x12d1 TargetProductList="14f8,1575" HuaweiNewMode=1 DefaultVendor=0x12d1 DefaultProduct=0x1f16I replugged the device and then ran

What does
usbconfig -d ugen4.2 dump_device_descshow? in either config mode?Steve
-
before that command, you had posted above
Interface 0
bLength = 0x0009
bDescriptorType = 0x0004
bInterfaceNumber = 0x0000
bAlternateSetting = 0x0000
bNumEndpoints = 0x0002
bInterfaceClass = 0x0008 <Mass storage>error message say
Error: can't use storage command in MessageContent with interface 0; interface class is 2, expected 8. Abort
so the bInterfaceClass should have changed to 0x0002 <Communication device>pls confirm
if so, it's strange that it's not creating the network interface
it's possible that you need a specific driver not available on pfsensei found a different config to try if you want

@kiokoman said in Huawei K5150 LTE modem not showing as ethernet device:
error message say
Error: can't use storage command in MessageContent with interface 0; interface class is 2, expected 8. Abort
so the bInterfaceClass should have changed to 0x0002 <Communication device>
pls confirmYes, that is correct.
I tried the new config with the MessageContent but the result is still the same.
I also suspect that I require a specific driver.
Unfortunately I don't know pfSense or FreeBSD well enough to dig further.

Thanks for the help everyone

I decided to compare the results of the Vodafone (Huawei) K5150 LTE to a Vodafone (ZTE) K4201-Z HSPA device.
Both of them are ethernet over USB devices and the K4201-Z works fine but doesn't support LTE.Here is the K4201-Z's information

The question is, what do I need to do in order for the K5150 to be detected in the same manner?

Maybe try
usbconfig -d ugen4.2 dump_curr_config_descjust to make sure it really is using config index 1 with the 3 available interfaces.Steve

it could be because it's still not defined here ? https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-src/blob/RELENG_2_5/sys/dev/usb/usbdevs
even on freebsd12 there are "only" this modem defined

Indeed it isn't but not all drivers need to have the device explicitly defined there. The ZTE device above also isn't in that file.

Good day
Fortunately I only borrowed the K5150 to test the failover and load balancing before I invest in proper hardware.
It seems like there isn't a quick or easy solution to this so we might just as well close this issue.
Thanks for the help everyone.
