Hi,

with these messages:

---
Warning: Module snd_hda_intel is in use
Warning: Module snd_hda_codec is in use by snd_hda_intel
---

you will probably need to reboot to let the HSF driver have the chance 
to take control of your modem, this is probably already done since you 
managed to start dialing.

It is possible that the source of the problem is that the configuration 
of the HSF driver was not completed and the country is either not 
entered or wrong. You should review that setting with the 'sudo 
hsfconfig --country' command in a shell and try again to connect.

If you require more assistance, you should send an updated "hsfdiag.txt" 
file to support at linuxant.com, it is possible that we will be able to see 
the source of the problem in that file.
