Need help getting 3g modem to work

[Scrag]

Hi.

Im a bit new to mobile broadband and am trying to get it to work on my pineapple with version 3.0.0. I have a Franklin u600 and am using virgin mobile for my provider. Ive attached a jpeg of my setup screen. Im not even sure which /dev/USB# to use but ive tried 0 - 4 and none work. Whenever I change it and click the "re-dial" I dont see any lights flash on my modem so its like its not even trying. I just have a solid green light on my modem. I tried re-flashing my pineapple too just in case and still same issue.

I left the provider/password blank. The reason I did this is on my linux box I just make a new connection in gnome network manager, select virgin mobile - this has #777 for the number. It doesnt use the username and password and it connects and works fine.

Any ideas would be appreciated. I did use a usb hub and a flash drive but I removed that from the equation after I reset the pineapple to make troubleshooting simpler.

Thanks,
Scrag

Anyone have any ideas where I could start with this? A 3g guide or maybe a youtube video that shows how to setup 3g? The only thing ive been able to find is the link below, which didnt make much sense to me other than the screen shot.
