Yep, that was also my first guess but /etc/config/network states:
config interface 'wan'
option proto 'mbim'
option device '/dev/cdc-wdm0'
and /etc/config/upnpd for example has the Option set as well (tried with “wan” and “wwan0”):
config upnpd 'config'
option download '1024'
option upload '512'
option internal_iface 'lan'
option port '5000'
option upnp_lease_file '/var/upnp.leases'
option uuid 'b011d895-a0dd-47bc-9a57-cca06d904fa1'
option external_iface 'wwan0'
So i am pretty out of ideas currently…
