Oh yea, that list was built for MM 1.0, quite a long time ago...

A lot of the new Huawei modules (HiLink firmwares) aren't managed by
ModemManager any more, instead they provide a network interface and
expose a built-in web to configure the modem. If you just need
connectivity, this may be perfectly enough for your use case.

If you do need control over the modem, though, something managed by
ModemManager would be better. Huawei also has non-HiLink firmware
variants that e.g. work in MBIM mode and that allows easy integration
with ModemManager. E.g. I've seen E3372 devices managed in both ways.

I'm personally not going to recommend any USB dongle myself, because I
really don't use them much (mostly playing with minipci/m2 modules
lately), so not sure which ones are better than others really... Any
module that works either in QMI or MBIM mode should be good enough I
guess. Maybe someone else has suggestions here?
