I finally have this modem working.
However, to do so, I had to enter the command sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0xc88 product=0x17da
The biggest problem now is that everytime I reboot, which is often with a laptop on the move, pon tells me that there is an unknown dev/ttyUSB0.
So I have to enter the command sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0xc88 product=0x17da
Every time that I boot.
Why is this not sticking?
How do I get it to stick?
What seems to be a minor problem is that the above command line should have a maxSize option.
Apparently the maxSize command is not longer available in Dapper.
Or has it been replaced by something else?

try this link to see if you can get it going on boot.
Skim down to the lines;
# modprobe usbserial vendor=0xf3d product=0x0112
and appending this line to /etc/modules will cause it to be automatically (re)loaded the next time you reboot:
You may need to follow the rest of the article, but make sure that you replace your vendor values for the examples given in red.

Thank you.
I do not have the same file structure mentioned in the article.
I have a file sl-modem-daemon.modutils in the /module folder, which I suppose is the correct file to append to.
Thanks again.

Wrong location? Look in the /etc directory for the file modules. This is the file that should be appended. Not the /etc/modutils folder, I would guess.

Thank you.
That was really sloppy of me.
I went down the /etc file list too fast for my own good and stopped too soon.
Got it now.
Thanks again.
