Is this broken on linux with libmbim+ModemManager, or only with umbim? Or is it just that the new version forces MBIM mode, while the older allows QMI? Or is the problem related to the QMI issues discussed here: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libqmi-devel/2014-August/000883.html I don't know if that thread ever concluded with something that worked.... In any case: Please provide more details. Are you using QMI or MBIM? Which firmware revisions are working? not working? Are there any visible differences in USB descriptors or other device configuration data that could explain the problems. How does it break? Errors? Plain dead? Connecting OK, but not forwarding traffic? Other??? I'd prefer that we make Linux work with *any* firmware available to the general public instead of requiring specific firmware revisions. If at all possible. And if it works with Windows8, then it should be possible to make it work with Linux as well :-) I don't have any Aircard 340U, but I recently got an EM7305 which should be pretty similar (same Qualcomm chipset and Sierra firmware codebase). So I might be able to reproduce the problem if I know what to look for. Especially the firmware revisions involved...
