Description: after i connect my usb 3G modem NM show me the network name in the nm-applet, if i try to connect he try a bit and disconnect; modem's led goes from blinking to still, so the modem is connected. No connection however.
Every try to set a connection results in a failed one w/o an error popup.
Only way to connect is using Sakis3G, that just works after requesting some questions, like choosing the modem interface (1,3,5) but i noticed that modem's usb id stay the same before and after the connection.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
networkmanager 1.0.0-2
modemmanager 1.4.6-1
usb 3G modem Vodafone / ZTE K3806Z

* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce: connect the modem, use the connection from nm-applet and wait the spinning icon to return to unconnected icon.
This task depends upon

Well, even wvdial is connecting, after a little search of some AT commands to use.

New version of ModemManager (1.4.8-1) did not change anything.

Is this still valid with current version of networkmanager (1.8.x?)

I don't use modemmanager anymore though. But it was working good half a year ago though.
