I have the Franklin U600 dual broadband modem for 3G/4G installed on Kubuntu12.10. That is, I finally got it to flip when inserted to show the 3G modem (Qaulcomm). the modem is detected, shown by netwrok-manager (Gnome) and is making a connection to the ISP Virgin Mobile.
However, the 4G part of the modem, a Broadcom chipset bece 3301, is not revealed in the process. so far no switching method has worked. The stagin driver bcm_wimax also does not prompt the modem to show up despite the fact that dmesg shows the driver module loading and possibly the modem.
Here is the latest dmesg excerpt:
[11873.942663] bcm_wimax: module is from the staging directory, the quality is unknown, you have been warned.

[11878.824385] QNX4 filesystem 0.2.3 registered.

I have no idea what this means.
Can anyone enlighten me, please?
