If it is supported, it should work with the u3g(4) driver I think. See the manual page for more details. It says that the Huawei B190, E180v, and E220 are supported. But these lists in manuals are sometimes incomplete. You should probably load the u3g.ko driver _before_ plugging in the device. Some devices can function both as a USB mass storage device and as a modem. The modem won't show up unless the driver is already loaded. Once connected it will probably function like a serial device (/dev/cuauX). So have a look at chapter 25 in the Handbook. Dialing out is covered in =C2= =A725.5.
