I made an extra post same time you posted, so I withdrew it as it became 
unuseful with this new information. 

Integrated eh, well that explains a bit :)

>From your output, the line
device: '/sys/devices/pci-0/pci0000:00/0000:00:00.0/usb2/2-2'

Seems to indicate that your internal integrated Mobile card is run over an 
internal USB. 

This is similar to my Qubes tablet, where my touchscreen is tied to my USB. If 
I try to pass my USB to a VM, I then loose all touch input. 

Similar in your case, if anything else is tied to USB, it will follow wherever 
you pass your USB. This means, if you pass your USB, it should make your 
integrated device: '/sys/devices/pci-0/pci0000:00/0000:00:00.0/usb2/2-2' follow 
your USB into that VM.

Question is, whether your hardware support this or not, it was much simpler 
when it was just an USB controller. This integrated hardware tied to your USB, 
may or may not complicate it. 

At least I think it's tied to your USB; given that the IP address is written in 
zero's, which suggests it's like a dummy PCI address for the internet mobile 
chip, since it's actually using the USB pci address instead. 

Okay, lets try this instead. 
- Pass your USB Controller to your sys-net VM. 

- Try put in a different USB device, like a flash pen, or USB external 
harddrive, something that can verify if your USB passthrough works in sys-net. 
Be sure you remove it properly when its time to remove it, if its anything with 
important data on, better use an empty one to be safe. First remove within the 
VM, then outside the VM afterwards, always in this order.

- If it doesn't work, then try restart, and try again, see if it works. 

- If it still doesn't work, then there is something wrong with the USB. This 
may explain the issue, but on the other hand, if your USB works, then it 
indicates another issue.



Putting it into perspective, assuming your Mobile is tied to your USB 
controller, whether your USB controller works in sys-net is therefore assumed 
to be pretty essential. Finding out whether the USB itself works or not for 
other USB devices in the sys-net, provides us with new information and new 
approaches we can try.
