TD-W8970 Internet Connection fails with supported 3G USB modem.
Model :
Hardware Version :
Firmware Version :

I'm using this router in 3G connection sharing mode with USB internet key. The key is model Olicard 200 14.4 from Olivetti, which appears as "successfully identified" with PIN status "ready" in the 3G modem status page, so the router is supposed to support it. It has a Fastweb SIM so I set up the APN "datacard.fastweb.it" that Always worked with it. However it fails to connect to Internet.
Scrolling the log, everything seems fine until the router send the connect command to the modem "ATDT *99# ^M^M": while it expects a "CONNECT" reply, it get "ERROR" instead.
Since the key is labelled TIM and the SIM is Fastweb, I tried a couple of tests: 1) I put the modem with the Fastweb key directly on pc and the connection works; 2) I put a TIM SIM in the modem and connected it to the router: same ERROR message so it's not an operator/carrier issue but seem something between router and modem even if it appears as supported.
Any help?
