Enumerating CDC-ECM + Modem Interfaces To add support for the MiFi U620L, you must modify the kernel source on your Linux server by adding the Vendor ID (VID) and Product ID (PID) of the MiFi U620L. NOTE: The following instructions assume that your kernel version is 3.16.0-x-generic (To verify the kernel version, run the command uname –r.) - Page 13 e. Save the original Makefile and create a new Makefile that contains the only rule for option.o: obj-m += option.o Change the directory: # cd /lib/modules/3.16.0-x-generic/build g. Build the driver by issuing the following command: # sudo make -C /lib/modules/3.16.0-x-generic/build/ M=/usr/src/linux-headers-3.16.0-x-generic/drivers/usb/serial/ Add or replace option.ko in system modules directory: a.
- Page 14 If the option.ko driver is not loaded, follow these steps to load the driver: a. Load the USB serial driver module with the VID and PID parameters corresponding to the MiFi U620L by issuing the following command: # sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0x1410 product=0x9022 b.
