It builds under the former, but does not build under the latter, complaining about missing TS_CALLOUT. That beeing said, under 7.1 it kldloads/kldunloads, and as soon as I have an access to Huawei E220 (temporary), I will test whether it works. Is there anything special necessary to use this driver? Or is it just like using normal modem with ppp? I would like to know because my access to this device is currently limited only for some occasions. Regards, Milan
