u'll need to get software / drivers thats compatable with the Operating System for you Modem.

once you've installed the driver which Skeptik has suggested you will need to do the following...

click on the apple
click on system preferences
click on network
huawei mobile should be displayed on the left
(if not click add and it should come up automatically)
next
click on huawei mobile.
just put in the telephone number as: *99#
next
click on advanced
go to vendor
choose other
the huawei mobile connect 3G modem script should pop up automatically
next skip enable error correction and compression
then choose ignore dial tone when dialing
click ok
click apply
click connect

presto... it should connect providing that the sim is active
