Huawei K3675 [ not working ]

Hello! I'm new on this forum so dont be so harsh on me.
I have a problem with my Vodafone Mobile Broadband Huawei K3675 HSPA, I can't make it work on 64bit Ubuntu. I called the guys from Vodafone, and they told me that the Mobile Broadband they gave me doesnt support Linux machines...I know they're wrong, I just don't know how to make it work..
I also did this:

andrei@ubuntu:~$ usb_modeswitch -v 0x12d -p 0x1520 -M "5553424312345678000000000000001106000000000000000 0000000000000"

Looking for default devices ...
No devices in default mode or class found. Nothing to do. Bye.

andrei@ubuntu:~$ lsusb

Bus 001 Device 005: ID 12d1:1520 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.

and it didnt recognize my USB Broadband device...

Thank you
Regards, Dan.

If you install version 1.1.4 with data package version 20100826, then your device is supported out of the box.

Ok, and where do I get that, because I dont have an Internet connection on Ubuntu, only on Windows 7 machine wich is installed on the same laptop. Also if you want, I can list all the commands I did to make my connection work. I have all of them stored.

Well, you could download with Windows and get the files from the Windows partition.
If you have trouble doing that, you could use a memory stick or card for the transfer.

Then install the packages manually with "dpkg -i <file>".
