I looked into the Wiki ( http://pandorawiki.org/USB_compatibility_list#HSDPA_.283G.29_Modems ) and there stands, that this modem will work for me. But I don't know how.
I'm using a hub for connecting my Huawei E220 to my pandora.
What do I have to do next? Could somebody help me? Thanks :)
 
I assumed it was a case of click on the NetworkManager applet and select the option that should have appeared under "Mobile Broadband". However, that's if everything is all set on the Pandora packages wise. You may have to use usb_modeswitch. I think there's a video of this around somewhere, although that may have been with a mobile phone.
 
DJW suggested that modem would be plug and play, but that was probably a million OS versions ago! I've got the same one, and I've got my Pandora back at last, so I might look into this some more today.

This is the go-to thread for USB broadband dongles: http://www.gp32x.de/board/index.php?/topic/54318-guide-mobile-broadband-usb-stick-usage/

...but no E220 luck in there either.
