Uable to Install USB Photo 3G Modem

[Krishna Kulkarni]

Dear All,

I have a USB modem, details given below. When I do lsusb, can see that
dongle is detected but when tried to scan by "wvdialconf" , unable to
scan usb modem. Have checked for ttyUSB files in /dev directory, there
are only ttyS0-ttyS31 files available & no ttyUSB.

Please help to install the USB data card on my laptop.

Data Card Details--
Photon 3G
ZTE Corporation
MF 190
HSUPA USB Stick


Please refer few commad results ..

Sorry, no modem was detected!  Is it in use by another program?
Did you configure it properly with setserial?
