If I understand modules.dep correctly, it says that both pl2303 depend 
on usbserial.
So when either is loaded, usbserial will be loaded. But the problem here 
is that pl2303
should not be loaded at all as it's for USB-serial adapter, not 3G 
modem. I'm not sure
what controls that.

Thanks,


Simon
