Hi. Yes, it's true that linux driver loads firmware into modem at boot time. But the windows driver does the same thing. The firmware is erased as soon as the computer is turned off or modem is unplugged. It means that your problem is not caused by linux driver at all. Honestly, I don't know where the problem may be. Does the windows driver even try to upload the firmware into modem? (the modem lights should be flashing for a while)
