3G modems will not work on Ermine, it is a beta technically. So far I haven't seen a fix yet. But Dingo isn't beta and it works with 3G usb modems.

There is quite a bit of tethering support as of late. I get 3G by having my Rooted phone use Wifi Tethering, creating an adhoc wifi connection.
Then you must either use ZT-Switcher to switch your PE into Adhoc mode so it can connect to your phone.

Or you use the newest option that lets you connect without the ZT program. Seems pretty easy to impliment.

If you are curious about rooting your device, look at step 3 on this thread.

Rooting is needed to run ZT Switcher, I don't see a reason why you'd need to be Rooted for the Non ZT option. Which is convenient for many.
Good Luck
