[ In fact, the modem USB ID for the ZTE MF112 is the same (19d2:0031) as for the already supported ZTE_MF627 - so once the TG582n detects the
MF112 in storage mode and mode switches the device, then the TG582n detects the dongle as a ZTE MF627 ].
 
== Finding the config from the Internet ==
 
There are several external sites to consult in case someone else has already worked out the data for the new dongle:

= Adding a new dongle =
different numbers.
 
Once the dongle is recognised, the next step is to configure the 3G service ([[Router_Router -_TG582N_ TG582N -_3G 3G|3G]]) and then see if mobile broadband
works. On the web interface 'Broadband Connection' should show the mobile broadband connection, and 'View More' should show operator
and signal strength info - if the signal strength info is missing, the 'AT interface' might be wrongly configured.
