It seems like the modem disconnects right after it has connected. I see that the signal level is 2 of 5. What happens if you try to set the connection to use only 2G or 3G?
There is work underway upstream to support connecting to the modem using QMI protocol, but that is probably not ready at earliest for Ubuntu 13.04. It will probably improve performance, but it seems like the modem should work without also. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1042456 Title: Huawei e398 doesn't work Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “modemmanager” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After configuring in Network Manager all parameters specific to my ISP I can't connect to the network with such results: Aug 28 00:01:07 ubuntu NetworkManager[1152]: <info> Activation (ttyUSB0) starting connection 'Cyfrowy Polsat Default' Aug 28 00:01:07 ubuntu NetworkManager[1152]: <info> (ttyUSB0): device state change: disconnected -> prepare (reason 'none') [30 40 0] Aug 28 00:01:07 ubuntu NetworkManager[1152]: <info> Activation (ttyUSB0) Stage 1 of 5 (Device Prepare) scheduled...
