Folks.
I've been handed an 887M with a PCEX-3G-HSPA-R6 card in it, and asked to get it working on the big, bad internet.
I've managed to get it to the point that it at least *tries* to connect to the internet over the 3G network - but I've run into a problem I can;t, for all my google-fu, find an answer to.
Details - Router is an 887M/K9, running 15.1(1)T1. 3G SIM is confirmed OK (I've put it into my laptop, which has a cellular modem, and it works fine).
What happens is that the ce0 interface connects, and then immediately drops, and goes into reset mode. I'm stuffed if I know why - not sure if I need to do a firmware change to it, or soemthing else to the config.
Config (which is very basic - I just want it on the internet before I get fancy) is below
Router#sh run

It *seems* to come up, but immediately drops out, and I can't figure out why.
Anyone got any hints/tips before I hit the TAC for help? hit me with the cluestick if you've got one!
Thanks!
