Have you tested it in a typical device - phone/tablet?
No, I do not have anything (I can find) to test it on, I do have another
USB 3G modem I cannot at the moment find it.
I do not (and never will have) a mobile phone.

I used this for a couple of years on my laptop:
I am almost 100 percent sure its not a configuration issue. I have checked
my config with three on line sources, one of which was specfic to Optus
(both Virgin and Bendigo Telco use Optus) and everything checks out
____including___ the APN.
Looking at the data comming back it looks like the connection reachs the
Bendigo Telco servers and these are sending back a SIGHUP (a hangup
signal). My current theory is the optus network must be sending an
incorrect id to the Bendigo servers, which means a faulty sim. The problem
is of course they do not support Linux and are blaming that, and I cannot
try it on windows as the dongle is no longer switched to the mode windows
requires it in (Note 1). For various reasons including I am not sure how to
do it, I do not want to switch it back.
Note 1: When one get it it looks like a USB hardisk, Windows copies the
installation software from the dongle. when this is exicuted it switch's
the dongle into operational mode. In this it has 3 serial ports a hardisk
and a ram disk.
On another issue, is the modem locked?
No
