Despite the thread title, I think you mean a Netgear 341u right? This seems to be one of the devices that presents itself as a USB ethernet device then, rather than a WWAN modem interface. Yes, they do often expose the control channels for use as a WWAN modem (AT commands, QMI, etc) but their primary mode seems to be the plain USB ethernet dongle mode. Usually you wouldn't use ModemManager to control these, because they do all the WWAN stuff internally. It's possible that ModemManager and the device are fighting over settings and such. If you don't use ModemManager, but just run DHCP on the ethernet device after plugging the device in, does that work? What does the modem's Web UI say about whether it's connected?
