Hm, remember the part about "dumb pass through"?  :)

The kernel doesn't do anything here, perhaps this is just a device that does
not work properly without some "magic" command that we don't know about.

The kernel doesn't know anything about AT commands, if the device isn't
responding, it's the device's problem.

Can someone provide the output of 'lsusb' for the device that does not work
properly?  I see 2 entries for the device that works, but none for the "broken"
device.
