It is likely that your modem will need to have been switched to "serial" 
mode over from the default "storage" mode before it could be used 
(usb_modemswitch is an userspace application to do that for many ZTE 
modems).

Could you please post

1) dmesg once your modem is plugged in
2) lsusb -v output for this modem
