If it is the Huawei E220, I am using a VF branded version and it works
great.  Avoid the E169 (as shipped by 3 and others?) it needs some hacks
to udev to make it work properly.

If you want to use the E220 with Network Manager you need to hack a
couple of config files, then it works well.  Let me know if you need the
files.

Cheers
