Here's another question around the same subject... I changed contracts today on my data tarif, from T-Mobile to Vodafone. Tried the new sim in my D420 with Novatel minipci 5520, and seeing messages in the sys log saying: Apr 28 16:48:26 D420 NetworkManager: check_pin_done(): PIN checking failed Now it only does this for the new sim, which doesn't have any pin enabled... ___ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list

>Yes, that's really scary, since you are not >knowing which provider it is going >to use. Well, you'll know once you get the bill >;-) Agreed, I think if it is going to connect, it's an absolute nessasity to tell you where it is connected. >The card normally just uses the APN that's >already stored in the SIM profile. Mine has 3 setup, so guess it is using the default, i.e. *99#? but as previously mentioned a feautre is on the way to enable which one you setup, a 'hot swap' option would be good, as I often flick between the 'generic' and 'vpn' apn that t-mobile uk offer. >But what i'd like to know: how did you enter the >PIN for your SIM card?

I didn't, I dont have a pin on my sim =P ___ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list

Hi all, Have just updated via yum update my fc8 laptop using the testing repos. It's updated my network manager, I believe it will be the same as the new fc9? Anyways it has detected my inbuilt 3g modem in my Dell D420, and amazingly just connected... without the need to enter the APN or anything else? Was just wondering if it should show the network name, i.e. T-Mobile? and is there a way to get it to show the signal strength? Thx ___ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
