This bug has not bothered me in months.  Still using ATT and a Sierra 875 
cellular data card to access Internet.  Ubuntu 8.1 finds, installs & operates 
Att connection with minimal attention & no errors.  Kubuntu not as easy, not 
automatic install, but rarely has off line problem.  Debian KDE also stays on 
line.

God Bless You,
