[Touch-packages] [Bug 704123] Re: Network Manager asks for the PIN even if it is memorized
As themroc (rauchweihe) wrote on 2015-01-21: #43 > You can solve the problem if you uncheck the option "All users can connect > with this network" in connection settings. this is true, works for me and should point to the right direction where the actual bug might be. from wild guessing: if checked "All users can connect with this network" network manager will avoid to use the stored PIN in /etc/NetworkManager. So, the quetsion standing is: why isn't it using the PIN stored in gnome-keyring, if available. Then again, the workaround mentioned by themroc should be sufficient for almost all use cases of this hardware (where does one really need multiple users on a mobile machine being able to use the same UMTS connection, where at the same time it is impossible to add that same connection for each user once ..?) my 2 cents :_) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/704123 Title: Network Manager asks for the PIN even if it is memorized Status in One Hundred Papercuts: Triaged Status in NetworkManager: New Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in network-manager package in Debian: New Bug description: HOW TO REPRODUCE 1.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 704123] Re: Network Manager asks for the PIN even if it is memorized
I'm using 15.10 and am experiencing similar problems with a Sierra Wireless MC7710 internal LTE card. I _did_ save the PIN in the connection settings of network manager, but the apparently it's simply ignored. The respective connection is set to auto-connect if available. If I wait long enough at the login screen for the WWAN to initialize, I'm asked for the PIN, but unlocking fails because of insufficient privileges. After login I can unlock my SIM after entering the PIN _AND_ sudo authentication. This Bug is now open for almost 5 years, so although I'm not a dev I would be glad to do whatever I can to help fix it, finally!

[Touch-packages] [Bug 704123] Re: Network Manager asks for the PIN even if it is memorized
Same here (as #47): 14.04 The bug here pops up slightly different: SIM PIN2 Unlock Required. The PIN2 is the difference. I dunno what PIN2 is, but never mind, if I type PIN1 it goes away, or if just close the window, it connects perfectly well. So I'm annoyed mostly with the pop-up of the Network Manager. Plus, as additional observations: 1. Whatever I do (see further up), it *does* connect. It read PIN1 perfectly okay, I never had to enter it. It set up the link perfectly okay *without* me ever entering this PIN. 2. It never displays 'Connected'; it always gets stuck at 'Connecting'., contrary to the other network interfaces. This obviously is very buggy code. It has an IP address, I can ping 8.8.8.8, and yet it still talks about 'Connecting'. 3. And the broadband icon in the network manager (at least in Kubuntu) never shows the link (box ticked). 4. And yet, despite 3., the notification says 'FONIC connected', while applet talks about 'used last'.

Plug the USB modem into a port. 2. When you are asked to enter the modem's PIN, do along with the automatically unlock this device option. 3.
