Hi Bjørn,
	The K3565-Z is a standard 3G modem rather than any sort of hotspot 
device, but does offer a pseudo Ethernet mode. Unlike some devices it has no AT 
commands for bringing up the connection in this mode, so I expect qmi to be 
the way to do this. I'm hoping to get this mode working at some point, so if 
there are any procedures you have that would make the device try to establish 
a connection via qmi, I'd be happy to try them out on all the devices I have.
