Hi guys!

Is there any way to connect to the Internet from 3G/HSDPA modem? If yes, is there any tutorial/documentation how to connect my 3G/HSDPA(NOKIA) with FreeBSD ?

Depends entirely on the modem. My Nokia E51 is trivially easy. Just load umodem, plug in to USB, and setup ppp to use the the nokia's tty device.

I think all modems that are supported will work in a similar fashion, or not at all. What Nokia do you have?

For a nokia phone you probably need this patch first:
