Hi,
I wonder if it works like some of the other EVDO / EDGE
devices I have used. If so, try the info on the page below and modify
the vendor ID info to match your card
http://www.semicomplete.com/blog/geekery/Kyocera-KPC650-EVDO-in-FreeBSD.html
I got it to work for my Kyrocera EVDO as well as GT-MAX EDGE card
which had a similar "UGEN Com" base.
