Vodafone k4203 usb modem not working

Fri May 06, 2016 10:59 am

Hi all. I tried this on the beginners forum , but no luck , so I'm going to try here.
The k4203 works on my pc , so I know it's functional.

Hi to all.
I'm trying to get a Vodafone K4203 usb stick to work in my raspberry pi 2 , but I'm having no luck.
I have the modem in a powered usb hub.
I've followed instruction from this page:
https://www.thefanclub.co.za/how-to/how ... and-wvdial
but still not working.
My usb stick default vendor/product was 12d1:1f1c
and after installing usb_modeswitch it's now 12d1:14fb , so I'm assuming the "mode switching" has worked , but
now I'm stuck as what to do , as there is still no internet connectivity.
Has anyone got any ideas on how I should proceed with this , I'm a little stuck.
I'm running the latest Jessie.
Cheers
Neddie
