Hmm. It seems I can only attach one file per comment. So attached here is an annotated syslog from 11.04 where the modem works just fine. In order to rule out any local changes being the source of the problem, the system was booted from the live CD.
Subsequent post will have a syslog from 11.10 where the modem fails to work. There are significant differences between the two, but sadly I am not sufficiently familiar with this to determine the problem. ** Attachment added: "syslog-1104.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/868034/+attachment/2618552/+files/syslog-1104.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/868034 Title: Huawei E220 can't connect on Ubuntu 11.10 Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I'm using Ubuntu in my HP Pavilion dv6745tx laptop.
