Hello,

I am searching for an internet usb surf-stick (umts) that works under CentOS. Is anyone using such a stick and if so, which chip has this usb-stick?

Would a Huawei E160E chip work under CentOS? Or maybe under CentOS with the 2.6.35 kernel from elrepo? Thank you very much!

E220 and E1550 work with small modifications.

I used 55-e1550.rules with (cant remember where to put it): SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1446", ATTRS{idVendor}=="12d1", \ RUN+="/usr/bin/usb_modeswitch -c /etc/usb_modeswitch.conf"
