[Solved] how to define pcmcia cellular modem?

I have Sierra AirCard 880E pcmcia cellular modem that I want to define on my arch.

the modem is recognized by lsusb: (I quoted only the relevant line)

$ lsusb
Bus 007 Device 003: ID XXXX:XXXX Sierra Wireless, Inc. AirCard 880E Device

how can I define it so I connect the internet with it? I use wicd/networkmanager

thanks
ariel
