I chased this up last year and had to register at the zte forum
<http://www.zte.com.au/ztebb2>

The forum is next to useless for linux related info for the 156 and
basically says no possible connection even for contacts, calender no
mention of data connection.


Later I found this about connecting a ZTE modem
<http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=645115&p=5#r93>.
It may give a hint, I didn't chase it up.

The 156 worked as a modem in WinXP but only with the ZTE application
so it should be possible.

Good luck, please let us know if you get it working.  I noticed a
number of trolls on forums claiming success but asking for a direct
e-mail to them - I think that is BS.
