Aircard 313U showing up as a "USB Mass Storage Device"

Rudolf Spoerer

I know this may not go anywhere, but I just finished transitioning to XG from UTM 9 and tried once more to get a Sierra Wireless 313U Aircard working. Now, with UTM 9 it did recognize it but I could not get it to work and eventually put it aside.

So, after seeing this entry in the USB compatibility list, I thought I would give it another try:

 

Sierra Wireless AC313U AT&T US LTE CAT3 1199:0fff 0f3d:68aa Possible

 

So after plugging it into the system, I then see the following in the admin screen:

 

Ok, not sure why that happened, but I do know there is a small amount of space on the Aircard that holds clients for people to install in order to use it, so I think XG is only seeing that mass storage device and not the modem itself which appears as a separate USB device

Now the odd thing, I have seen a community post of someone getting the Aircard 340U working but then the compatibility list shows it as follows:

Sierra Wireless AC340U AT&T US LTE CAT3 1199:0fff 1199:9051 Not compatible

So, I'm at a loss of what to do. At the moment, I can get a 340U for pretty cheap so I am inclined to go that direction and chuck the 313U out the window. If anyone has any steps that can get this to work, I would love to try them out.

 

Thank you in advance!

    Hi  

    Did you try with all the available USB ports on the XG firewall and getting the same detection as "Mass Storage"?

    Well, it appears that going the Aircard 340U route did not work as I had hoped. It still shows up and a USB Mass Storage device...  Has anyone run into this on other installations? Does XG only recognize these items when they are plugged into actual Sophos hardware vs being installed on a system like the Dell R210 I have XG running on?

     

    Either way, really disappointed neither the Aircard 313U or the 340U don't work (even though it seems like someone was able to get the latter working according to a post in the XG community).

     

    I'm at the end of my rope here, folks. I'd really appreciate any sort of direction. Moving USB ports didn't work either.

     

    Thanks in advance.
