Title: Cannot switch modes on Huawei E3372 LTE USB stick.
Post by: bobbythomas on January 27, 2017, 09:21:37 am

Hi all,

I'm having a hard time bringing up this USB stick. I am on a virtualized environment and was able to map the device to OPNSense VM, and OPNSense detects the devices.

  bDeviceProtocol = 0x00ff

  iProduct = 0x0002  <HUAWEI_MOBILE>
  iSerialNumber = 0x0003  <0123456789ABCDEF>
  bNumConfigurations = 0x0002

I tried switching the modes using the usb_modeswitch, but keep on getting the below error.

Take all parameters from the command line

The LTE USB stick is a carrier unlocked Huawei Hailink device. Any help is highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
