The 3607GW based modems are well supported by oFono, however we have not tested all of the possible ones. So assuming that you have installed ofono.rules file correctly the only other problem might be that your device manufacturer has named the port / network devices slightly differently from other manufacturers. See plugins/udev.c add_mbm() for more details. I see that we definitely do not cover the "Broadband Network Device" case that your modem is reporting. Running ofono with -n -d 'udev*' command line options should help you quickly diagnose the issue.
