You're right it is a HSDOA/UMTS modem, which behaves as USSB-CD or USB-disk 
drive and as modem
The exact type is Huawei E1552

with lsusb I see:
> Bus 001 Device 003: ID 12d1:1001 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. E620 USB Modem

It automounts as /media/Mobile Partner


Ideally I would like to be able to use the HSDPA modem under Linux if I like to 
and to be able
to change a few files and to reboot and to use it then in the WIndows GUEST.


I wondered if there's not something like a global blacklist by USB device ID, 
which inhibits the host OS
to touch certain devices.


bye
