When entering lsusbafter a reboot, latest after a minute this should be the result:īus 001 Device 005: ID 12d1:1001 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. That’s the reason why we use the cronjob.

In /etc/usb_modeswitch.dcreate a file name 12d1:1f01.

Ensure that the settings in /etc/usb_nfare set this way:.

If not, it switches the stick by calling the above script. This checks every minute if the stick is in the right mode.

Add this line to the crontab and save it:.

Call the crontab editor with sudo crontab -e.

This is the cron-script we will periodically execute, and that performs the switch to the modem mode of the stick.

(I did not succeed to get things up and running with usb_modeswitch only!)īe sure that there is NO pin set for the stick (plug it first on a Mac or Win machine and change that setting through the web interface of the stick)! However, this solution does work, and that’s what’s important to me 😉 As I’m actually not a system administrator, although I got a bit of knowledge during the past 30 years, it is not clear to me yet, why the intended solution (with usb_modeswitch alone) does not work. So I decided to get my „it’s running somehow solution“ published here. It turned out that this is highly complicated stuff, and that it is very difficult to find a solution. The Raspi shall work as monitoring server running icinga2, and for emergency cases, it shall send SMS using the USB stick. The problem was simple: I have a Raspi 3, and a Huawei 3531 3G USB stick.
