Current status: Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx with latest updates just requires 
installation of usb-modeswitch using
sudo apt-get install usb-modeswitch
No manual rules need to be changed/added.

The problem is: How to install it if you don't have internet connection?
I know people who only have the mobile internet. And I heard that for instance 
in spain (or countries with bad and few landlines) a lot of people can only 
rely on the mobile internet.

Would it be of risk including the usb-modeswitch on the CD and
installing it by default?

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: network-manager
  
  When I plug in my Huawei E1552 Mobile Broadband Modem, I get the
  provider's icon on the desktop after a while (Orange in Austria), but
  network-manager does not recognize it. Even trying to manually add the
  connection does not help.
  
  Network manager either does not show enable or disable menu entry in the
  context menu (right mousebutton).
  
  I already attached the modem to a Windows machine and either disabled
  pin code.
