[hsflinux] "No carrier" error.

[Linuxant support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

when you tried on the old PC, did you were using the exact same modem 
you are trying to use right now?

Could you send to support at linuxant.com the output of 'dumpdiag' please? 
Type the following in a root shell:

---
hsfconfig --dumpdiag
---

Just send us the generated file located in /tmp ('hsfdiag.txt').
It'll help us solve the problem.

Regards,
