FWIW, if it's anything like the Sierra Wireless cards I've supported in
the past, it's PCCard on the outside and USB on the inside.

On OS/2 these devices look like a serial attached modem and use a dialer
like Injoy to establish a PPP connection to the provider.

OS/2 lacks the software required to enable the cards.  This needs to be
done under windows, but once done the cards work fine as long as the
pc52220 driver recognizes the card.
