You need to use usb_modeswitch to make it remember it's a womble^Wmodem. usb_modeswitch-data. See "man 1 usb_modeswitch" and its author's page: http://www.draisberghof.de/usb_modeswitch/ Good luck with the Voda dongle - we (me @Novell and Sebas @open-slx, plus the community) are going to be working a lot on improving 3G device support in KDE NetworkManagement in 11.4, for instance with transfer warnings on a given amount of data.
