Dear Experts,
Now being under time pressure, I bought a USB modem / dongle from Vodafone. It turned out to be ZTE K5161z. Please kindly advise how to make it working (if hopefully possible):
# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 015: ID 19d2:1405 ZTE WCDMA Technologies MSM
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0951:1665 Kingston Technology Digital DataTraveler SE9 64GB
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 05e3:0608 Genesys Logic, Inc. Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Here I was happy, that it is being recognized by the system!
# lsusb -t
/: Bus 01.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=ehci-platform/1p, 480M
|__ Port 1: Dev 2, If 0, Class=Hub, Driver=hub/4p, 480M
|__ Port 1: Dev 3, If 0, Class=Mass Storage, Driver=usb-storage, 480M
|__ Port 2: Dev 15, If 0, Class=Communications, Driver=, 480M
|__ Port 2: Dev 15, If 1, Class=CDC Data, Driver=, 480M
|__ Port 2: Dev 15, If 2, Class=Mass Storage, Driver=usb-storage, 480M
Unfortunately, I have no cdc* or ttyUSB* files in /dev
In dmesg I see, that it is (probably) detected as a CD-ROM:
[ 70.921352] scsi 1:0:0:0: CD-ROM ZTE USB SCSI CD-ROM 2.3 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2
I have installed the following packages:
opkg install uqmi
opkg install usb-modeswitch
opkg install kmod-usb-serial-option
opkg install kmod-usb-serial-qualcomm
And those are my USB devices:

Please kindly let me know how to get this working ? It looks much more difficult than anticipated... Thanks a lot!
