Joseph,
 
I have some instructions that were forwarded to Rob Gipman from Reigner Battenberg from a previous thread on this subject.  See below.
 
Hope this helps.

"If you are using a new kernel >=2.6.11, the driver for the usb-serial (from Texas Instruments) cable is in the kernel.
 
These are the instructions I gave someone for how I got it working on SuSE 9.1.  Should be easy to 'translate' for your distribution:
 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
1.    Update the hwinfo, udev and mkinitrd packages.  You can find them here:  http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/people/agruen/i386/  
 
2    Download the 9.3 kernel from
 
3    Create an executable script file called  /etc/hotplug/usb/ti_usb_3410_5420 (or  /etc/hotplug.d/usb/ti_usb_3410_5052.hotplug depending on yr dist.) and paste the contents of the attached script.
 
4    FINALLY.  Create a soft link
        ln -s /dev/ttyUSB0  /dev/modem
 
You're done!  Run YaST and configure your modem.

Subject: [LUG] MTN CDMA usb modem under linux

Am trying to get the MTN modem working under linux but having lots of trouble

After extensive searching on the internet (including the previous threads on this list), I have been able to get the cable loaded at ttyUSB0, by upgrading the kernel and adding 'options usbserial vendor=0x451 product=0x3410' to /etc/modules.conf (ubuntu: /etc/modprobe.d/options).

Problem is, when I set wvdial, pppconfig and even minicom to use ttyUSB0 as modem port, there seems to be no communication, nothing on the phone screen while dialing.

I have tried this phone under windows, it works well (using MTN supplied drivers)

Has anyone set this up under linux? Please post your experience.

Cheers, Joseph
