How ttyUSB* created on my 3G modem problem

Hi

I would like to ask if someone knows the explaination of the /dev/ttyUSB*. I had a internet connection 3G usb dongle modem and need to restart before it detected the mobile broadband in the network manager. Before i reinstalled the lucyd lynxs i never meet this problem. But after i reinstalled the lucyd lynx i need to put the usb modem first before starting my system.. but if i plug my usb modem in a running state the network manager doesn't detect the mobile network therefore a remedy is plug first and restart.

One thing i notice if i had a working usb modem is i had a /dev/ttyUSB1-4 but if i plug it later and dont have a working usb modem.. i dont have the /dev/ttyUSB*.

I dont know if i this is the cause or the services that doesn't start if a plug the usb in running state..

Hope someone knows and understand my problem.

TERM(1) 						      General Commands Manual							   TERM(1)

NAME
term - turn PC into a dumb terminal [IBM] SYNOPSIS
term [baudrate] [parity] [bits_per_character] [-dial_string] [device] EXAMPLES
term 2400 # Talk to modem at 2400 baud term 1200 7 even # 1200 baud, 7 bits/char, even parity term 8 9600 /dev/tty01 # 9600 baud, 8 bits/char, no parity, use tty01 term -atdt12345 /dev/tty01 # Start with a command to dial out DESCRIPTION
Term allows MINIX to talk to a terminal or modem over RS232 port 1. The program first sets the baudrate, parity and character length, and then forks. The parent sits in a loop copying from stdin (usually the console's keyboard), to the terminal or modem (/dev/tty00). The child sits in a loop copying from the terminal or modem (/dev/tty00) to standard output. Thus when RS232 port 1 is connected to a modem, every keystroke typed on the keyboard is sent to the modem, and every character arriving from the modem is displayed. Standard input and output may be redirected, to provide a primitive file transfer program, with no checking. Any argument that starts with a minus ('-') is sent out to the modem, usually to dial out. Term accepts several commands that are formed by typing the escape character, CTRL-], and a letter. Type CTRL-]? to see a list of commands. The subshell command is very important, it allows you to type in a ZMODEM command to transfer data. Do not quit term to do this, or your modem line will be reset! Term keeps the modem line open on file descriptor 9 while running the subshell, so you can type <&9 >&9 at the end of your ZMODEM command to connect it to the modem. Important note: to use term, it is essential that /etc/ttytab is configured so that there is no shell hanging on /dev/tty01. If there is, both the shell and term will try to read from /dev/tty01, and nothing will work. SEE ALSO
