Some issues you might encounter are:

Overheating: The modem (and sometimes the PC) might overheat. Ensure the modem is connected to a good port when in use then disconnected and removed when not in use. You could also employ some PC cooling techniques (see https://blog.hovatek.com/how-to-resolve-the-problem-of-an-overheating-laptop-pc/ )
No / Low signal: If the signal is weak, try changing ports and location. If the modem says Invalid SIM then its locked to another network and needs to be unlocked (see https://blog.hovatek.com/how-to-unlock-a-modem/ )
Modem not detected: This might be a hardware (port / modem) or driver issue. Try uninstalling the modem driver (under Device manager and then Programs) and manually installing (using a DVD, installer or another modem). Also, try other ports and the modem on another PC.
Frequent disconnection: This if often associated with the network but might also be due to a loose port / moving the modem while connected to the PC

Normally when you buy a new 3G internet modem from a service provider the modem will be locked to the network in order not to support or work on any other network. If you insert another network Sim card on it you would be asked to provide your unlock code all because it has been locked by the service provider. The unlock code allows you to bypass the modem in order to be able make use of another network Sim card on it.
How to get started
Firstly, you need to generate the unlock code. And how do I generate the unlock code?
You can generate the unlock code using a software called Master Unlocker.

Immediately you extract or double click the “Universal Mastercode”, it run itself just like your pc calculator
Bring out your Huawei modem, at the back of the modem there is a IMEI number Locate the IMEI number
On your Universal MasterCode application, Click on 'Huawei' tab, then erase the IMEI existing on the application and type in the IMEI number you found at the back of your modem And then click on “Calculate”

Immediately a result displays, copy the code/number in the “UNLOCK CODE” roll field to your notepad or write it some where.
Remove the Sim card on your Fastlink/3G Huawei internet modem and replace it with another network provider Sim card. That’s is, if your modem is MTN fastlink, remove the MTN sim card and insert Airtel, Glo or Etisalat.
