5- sudo modprobe cdc_acm
6- sudo /sbin/modprobe usbserial vendor=0x0421 product=0x04f0
7- sudo vi /etc/wvdial.conf
delete everything in it and add the following (this is what worked for me)
[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/ttyACM0
Baud = 460800
Init1 = ATZ
Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
ISDN = 0
Modem Type = Analog Modem
Phone = *99#
Username = username
Password = password
Stupid Mode = 1
8- wvdialconf create
you get something similar to this
