Run an operating system other than Windows on your machine, or run Windows 2000 or the 32-bit Windows XP rather than 64-bit Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7. The Huawei modem in question is a cell-phone modem, which means it shows up as a PPP networking device, and WinPcap, which is what Wireshark uses to capture network traffic on Windows, doesn't support PPP devices in Windows Vista or Windows 7.
