This is what is happening on my router after powering it on with the USB stick connected

[LOM]

The K4305 (usb id 12d1:1f15)is a new device on the market and is currently not supported by dd-wrt.
I see from the interface list that this is a dongle conforming to the Mobile Broadband Interface Model (MBIM) specification which Microsoft requires for giving a Win8 approval for it.

MBIM devices will be supported by d-wrt later this year.

Hello,
Thanks for the reply.
Do you have any idea when is it gonna be supported this year (rather sooner or later?)
