USB modem do not work for different reasons. If you are using it for the first time then you might have to install a certain type of software in your pc to use the modem. some USB connections are trouble some. Try different pods. Do not use any other USB connections which sometimes cause this types of problem.
Most important thing is check that if the modem is ok. Faulty modems are not unusual. So be sure about that. You can try in different pc to check if your pc has got any problem with that. If these do not work then you might have to consult your provider for fixing this up. Hoping for the best. thanks.

Dear Mahbub Hasan,
When I was using the same modem with you, I also encountered the same problem, when the modem will suddenly don't detect with my computer, and I found out the problem that it cause:
-
The modem was not properly installed to my computer, so I have to reinstall it and follow the instruction carefuly.
-
My computer doesn't have a program for modem like that, so I have to download another drive and install it to my computer.
-
My computer is already full of programs and software, so I delete some of the unnecessary software to give way to the modem.
-
The LAN connector has a technical problem, so I send my computer to the technician and try to ask help to them to fix the problem.
-
The modem is defective, so I have to send it again to the provider and ask a replacement.Â

Dear Mahbub Hassan,
USB (Universal Serial Port) is plug & play port. Plug & play means when we attach any device with this port, it detects automatically and make it run.
Sometimes the files which are necessary to make USB plug & play.
When some of these files become crashed, then this port does not detect any drive.
To solve this problem, remove your flash and attach it after some seconds.
If you see that USB MODEM is still not detecting.
Then restart your computer and run chkdsk command.
This command will check all the files.
This process will remove your problem.
Hope it will help.
