There was a thread about this sometime ago. I'll try to look for it later.
Note that, for the workarround above, you might get into troubles if
you do have several equal usb modems.
Each modem will have its own sim with -maybe- different
carrier/service/plan/etc. With the above procedure, you will remap any
one of the removed modems to the next recognized device and if you do
get to remove two or more.... you might finish sending messages
through the wrong modem.
As said above, there was thread that provides a way through a script
to remap an specific usb device to an specific usb port. I didn't
tested that solution but looked to be the right solution.
Hope helps
Regards
Alvaro
