Hello,

I have a Sophos XG firewall VM.

I would like this firewall to be able to handle 4G connections.

The PVE has a Huawei Mobile V7R11 PCIe LTE card.

Physically, it is on a PCIe slot, but with the lshw command, it appears on usb port 1:

*-usb:1
description: Communication device
product: HUAWEI Mobile V7R11
vendor: Huawei Technologies Co.
physical id: 7
bus info: usb@1:7
version: 1.02
serial: 0123456789ABCDEF
capabilities: usb-2.00 ethernet
configuration: driver=option maxpower=2mA speed=480Mbit/s

I have attached this card to my VM in the hardware

I also changed the machine to q35

The problem is that I don't see any wifi card in my VM.

What can I do?

Thanks for your help.
