      Hi,

      I have configured Huawei E392 according to these instructions https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Configuring_3G_modems and the connection works, but the speed is only about 12Mbps down / 12Mbps up.

      If I connect the same stick to my Mac (without moving the stick) I get speeds 60Mbps down / 20Mbps up.

      I'm running pfSense 2.1.3-RELEASE (i386) on an IBM ThinkPad T43 (2668-45G).

      Is there a way that I could get those faster speeds out of pfSense?

        Well, looks like both physical USB ports are in UHCI-mode (USB 1.1) that's why the 12Mbps up/down limit…..

        Nope, it's connected to USB 2.0

        ugen4.2: <huawei mobile="" huawei="" technologies=""> at usbus4, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=HIGH (480Mbps) pwr=ON</huawei>

        But still the speeds are about 12Mbps down / 15Mbps up
