HowTo: Huawei E173 on Ubuntu

# sudo aptitude install usb_modeswitch -y
Once this is installed, attach your modem. Then issue this command.
# lsusb

Bus 001 Device 003: ID 12d1:1d35 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
With this command you will be able to find out vendor id and the product id of the modem. Now just open the /etc/modules file and put in a new line there

Save and Quit the file and simply reboot the machine.
