Huawei E3121 3G Datacard not found in Win XP Pro

Post by Ani »

I wish to do all internet related tasks in a VM with guest os Win XP pro32bit on host Win XP Pro 32bit just for security.
So, I installed virtualbox latest version together with similar version extension pack with all guest additions with the guest os.
I have successfully installed Huawei software from its own composite device E3121. But the software does not detect the datacard even though the usb datacard (composite) together with its network interface (cable disconnected mode) are always successfully detected and installed in the guest os win xpp whenever I plugin the data card. Further COM1 & COM2 are enabled in virtualbox.
The software of Huawei says "Device not found.". I have reboot the guest, plugin and plugout the data card repetitively but all in vain. Please help. Thank you.
