Hello,
I'm trying to find some kind of 3g modem that actually works with the RV215W router.
Without luck so far.
Huawei E1752 - not working, but ok, it is not on the supported modems list.
Huawei E372 - not working, it is on the list but under the T-mobile Germany and not T-mobile Poland so ....
Huawei E173 - not working, it is on the list as supported !!!
Does this router work with any kind of 3g modem at all ?
This is what I see in the logs after connecting E372:

Hi Michal,
For different ISP, 3g modem may have different behavior. The list is for ISP in US.
If your 3g modem doesn't work with local ISP, please register a case with our Small Business Support Center. Please refer the below link for contact details:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/support/tsd_cisco_small_business_support_center_contacts.html

Hello,
I've registered a case and now waiting for solution.
The list is not only for the US.
Under Polish ISPs, E173 is mentioned as supported.

Michal

Hi,
I can send you fixed driver they made for me.
My ISP is T-mobile (ERA) so maybe it wont work for you but still, you can try.
I dont know why cisco didn't put this driver in the downloads section for this router.
Maybe they must test it further more.
Send me PM with your e-mail and I will send it to you.
Best Regards
Michal

Hi!
I have a similar problem with Cisco RV215W (FW 1.1.0.5). I'm trying to connect the Huawei E173-u2 and unfortunately the router doesn't recognize it. I have similar information in the debug log.
Please send me the fixed driver if you can (my email: adam@ahlewandowski.pl) - perhaps it will help....
Best regards,
Adam

Hi Vladimir,
The driver has been included in the latest official release 1.2.0.14, could you try it?
