Setting up Novatel Mifi 2200 on 8.2-REL

[Ryan Coleman]

An update:

I rebuilt the kernel and still don't see it. On the office server it was immediately recognized...

x5020 = the embeded zeroCD
x6000 must be the modem and there's a line for it already
"product NOVATEL U760            0x6000  Novatel U760"

Any further ideas?
