For those looking for E156G firmware, I have found an unofficial site. Use at your own risk:
The (currently) last post in the thread at http://www.dc- unlocker.com/forum/showthread.php?t=308 made by artakamiryan on 2009-07-21 contains some links to this firmware. Before using, check what firmware version you currently have. One way to do this is to: - Boot with a kernel where the modem works (ie, you -do- get a /dev/ttyUSB0 created) - open it with minicom - type the AT command "ati" <return> - tell us the modem response You will get something like: ati Manufacturer: huawei Model: E169 Revision: 11.314.17.00.261 IMEI: 358109021939159 +GCAP: +CGSM,+DS,+ES or Manufacturer: huawei Model: E220 Revision: 11.110.05.00.00 IMEI: 358191017694576 +GCAP: +CGSM,+DS,+ES a later E220 version is Manufacturer: huawei Model: E220 Revision: 11.117.09.01.56 IMEI: 358954001901277 +GCAP: +CGSM,+DS,+ES Plese note that this is unofficial firmware provided by a third party. I have not tested it. It may in fact be for a completely different huawei model. It could even be a trojan, or contain a virus.
