The behaviour of Huawei modems depends on the respective firmware and may result in very different 'target modes'. These are the ones that can be used with Linux AFAIK:
1. Ethernet mode (controlled via built-in web interface) 2. NCM mode (CDC NCM interface with 'hybrid' AT control) 3. Serial mode (traditional serial ports for PPP connection and diag messages) No.3 is becoming rare. No.1 is simple to use but the browser control is a bit awkward. No.2 is preferable for modems >3G and should be supported by kernel and Modem Manager. It has the least overhead. Not sure if and how SMS features are included there - that's not my field of expertise.
