Hi,
I had issue with OpenWRT 14.07 and the HSO driver. It seems that rfkill has been disabled by default in this version of OpenWRT. Making my own image with rfkill enabled (USE_RFKILL in Global build settings), I managed to have my modem working on TP-WR710N. I tested that also on my WR1043ND and to my surprise i had an error using hso and rfkill, i was missing input-core but it is not listed as a dependency.
I made modification to hso connection scripts. The network mode can be selected ( GSM or UMTS ). The PDP context used is # 2 so the modem GPS can use PDP context # 1 for A-GPS connection. The modem connection log can be viewed with logread. chat is still used for the connection.
To know if hso in the comgt package, i like to add hso to PKG_RELEASE in the makefile. I haven't tested authentication. The patch need to be applied in the comgt package directory ( package/comgt for 12.09 or package/network/utils/comgt 14.07)

The LuCI configuration interface that goes with this is base on http://git.openwrt.org/project/luci.git. You can changed which luci you are using on OpenWRT 12.09 by editing the LuCI repository in feeds.conf.default. The following patch adds luci-proto-hso package to LuCI protocols list. The patch need to be applied in feeds/luci directory, using svn doesn't work.
