ZTE MF 626 on Karmic

Hi
I have an issue with a ZTE MF 626  3G+ dongle on Mint 8 and Karmic  (i 
know its roughly the same, but i did try both).

The connection is highly unstable unless it is used in a continuous way.
For example, if i use it for some web browsing (get a page, wait, get a 
page...), it will loose connection within a couple of minutes. On the 
other hand if i listen to some streaming music (continuous stream of 
data) i never had a connection loss. After several connection losses, 
the device is no longer listed in the NM connection list.

Anyone has already solved a similar issue?

I kind of have a suspicion for NetworkManager, with which my laptop 
really isnt friend with, but no real proofs against it so far. Anyone 
knows of a way of using the dongle while replacing NM with Wicd?

Thanks!

Nickolai
