Say hello to the u3g driver, implementing support for 3G modems.
This was located in the ubsa driver, but should be moved into a separate driver: - 3G modems provide multiple serial ports to allow AT commands while the PPP connection is up. - 3G modems do not provide baud rate or other serial port settings. - Huawei cards need specific initialisation. - ubsa is for Belkin adapters, an Linuxy choice for another device like 3G. Speeds achieved here with a weak signal at best is ~40kb/s (UMTS). No spooky STALLED messages as well. Next: Move over all entries for Sierra and Novatel cards once I have found testers, and implemented serial port enumeration for Sierra (or rather have Andrea Guzzo do it). They list all endpoints in 1 iface instead of 4 ifaces. Submitted by: aguzzo@anywi.com MFC after: 3 weeks
