On one machine there is no such icon but on the other there is a network
icon so I gave it a try.  I tried turning networking off and then on
again with the ethernet removed and the USB modem inserted and LXDE
still doesn't see the modem.
Same for LXDE->Preferences->Network Connections

Maybe the problem is related to the model of the modem.  I really have
no idea how Lubuntu vs Kubuntu handles them.  In Kubuntu, it is just to
plug it in and it shows up as a regular wired connection.
