I was expecting that.. USB modems have multiple configurations. By default, they use the mass-storage configuration, so when connected to a system, a setup.exe (most vendors officially only support Windows) is run which loads the drivers from the mass-storage and gets installed, and subsequently switches to modem configuration for use. Since you are using a GNU/Linux system, the drivers are available in the Linux kernel, and they follow standards. So, it should work by default. You only need to use usb_modeswitch to switch from mass-storage to modem configuration. In your dmesg log, you should then see a /dev/ttyACM0 device file entry. Please see: http://www.draisberghof.de/usb_modeswitch/ I am not sure if there is a GUI for this tool available (yet).
