[Bug 449394] Re: Huawei E220 modem unable to connect under Karmic

[HaraldK]

Update to my post #54 on 2010-02-06

As it seems, the firmware is not the problem. I found a wvdial script in
this comment

http://www.ende-der-vernunft.org/2009/04/29/eine-pest-namens-
networkmanager/comment-page-1/#comment-9912

that worked right away like this:

1) boot, HUAWEI not plugged.
2) plug in HUAWEI. (see dmesg output below)
3) wvdial -C name-of-script umts-pin 
  (don't forget to enter your pin in the script)
3) wvdial -C name-of-script umts

So the problem for me seems to be that NetworkManager or rather nm-
applet (one of the best documented pieces of software on the planet,
haha) does not notice that they could provide a PPP connection through
UMTS.

Is there anywhere documentation that explains the chain of events that
ought to happen from plugging in the HUAWEI to nm-applet providing me
the option to connect through it?

Harald.
