I really like the ExpressCard modems of old in this regard, actually: usually large enough that the shittiness is held together by the space they play with, plus there's room for a real SIM! I think some still work on 3G, too...
Oh, and they'd be on pretty much their own goddamn bus so that helps with detection a little.

Every software should have this
Fedora's warnings are on point
Why does D-Link make absolutely useless drivers? I've bought a USB modem in order to use cellular with my laptop, and the controlling software absolutely sucks. Often it doesn't recognize the device even though it's plugged in, other times it randomly decides that there's no service despite my phone right next to it getting 4 bars. This fucking piece of shit cost 30€, and it's shipped with a proprietary piece of software that's so bad it was probably written by an intern for half the price of a single device.
