      Hi community,

      I am trying to get my K3765 HSPA-Stick running @ Pfsense 2.3.2

      It got detected and is offically supported and mentioned @ https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Known_Working_3G-4G_Modems

        iManufacturer = 0x0003  <huawei technology="">iProduct = 0x0002  <huawei mobile="">iSerialNumber = 0x0000  <no string="">bNumConfigurations = 0x0001

      and I was able to add it as Link Interface. I tried to connect all using "bug'n'trial" (/dev/cuaU2; /dev/cuaU0.0;/dev/cuaU0.1;/dev/cuaU0.2;/dev/cuaU0.3), but failed.
      Following the https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Configuring_3G_modems guide.

      Weird fact: There are totaly no log entries @ PPP log or general log according to connection attempts/fails. This log stays empty.

      Using

      Handle 0x0001, DMI type 1, 27 bytes
      System Information
              Manufacturer: Supermicro
              Product Name: X7SPA-HF

      dedicated for the Pfsense with its default USB 2.0 onboard ports

      Does anyone have some advice for me how to get the issue fixed?

      Thanks for your effort in advance.</no></huawei></huawei></probed></huawei></no_6_byte></vodafone></vodafone></huawei></huawei></huawei></huawei>

        Hi,

        okay - found the issue…

        using /dev/cuaU0.0

        and if I want to use this interface, I should also tick the "hidden" checkbox "enable interface" :-D
