[Bug 509547] Re: [lucid] (option) 3G USB modem unusable if inserted from boot
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 546728 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/546728 this has just been a disaster after disaster ... at the moment, it is so unreliable, it is not usable. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. funny thing is, for me, it works first every time on a new install, or on the live CD. As soon as you have installed, done the first connection setup, reboot. Then there are problems. Usually you get the USB modem popping up as a drive, shown as an icon on the desktop, but then rarely does it show up as a network option. very frustrating. -- [lucid] (option) 3G USB modem unusable if inserted from boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/509547 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 509547] Re: [lucid] (option) 3G USB modem unusable if inserted from boot
tried to use vodafone mobile connect but its uninstallable due to lack of a gnome package. The E620 has been working in ubuntu since 2007 - not any more it seems. unless the release date is pushed back. Its reasonable to assume that there is going to be a lot of fustrated netbook owners who can't use their modem under 10.04 The artwork in ubuntu gets better and better, i'd rather have working hardware. -- [lucid] (option) 3G USB modem unusable if inserted from boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/509547 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I tried inserting the modem after boot - that didn't work. Also the next time I booted, network manager no longer recognised the modem at all. blackest_knight, you are lucky to have had it worl in 9.10, I have only managed to use it on 9.04.

[Bug 509547] Re: [lucid] (option) 3G USB modem unusable if inserted from boot
Well interesting to see that inserting the modem after boot might make it usable. Up to now i have been unable to get any use of my E620 other than as a cd drive and mass storage device. However it might be of interest to electhor that i had no problems at all with the E620 in 9.10 currently I am using an E156 on the live CD netbook version. I will experiment later with the E620 inserting after boot. It is pretty much critical that this modem works as it is the standard contract modem for 3 ireland.

[Bug 509547] Re: [lucid] (option) 3G USB modem unusable if inserted from boot
I'm sure the developers are working on this issue, but it still doesn't work in 10/04 RC release. This is catastrophic in my opinion and the final release should be held back if these devices are not able to work. The device is now recognised as a VirginBroadband cd, rather than a modem. Network manager still won't connect it after all the relevant details are entered via 'edit'. I will try usb-modeswitch again, but it didn't work before, so I am not too hopeful. This really is ctastophic for those of us who rely on these devices to access the internet. -- [lucid] (option) 3G USB modem unusable if inserted from boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/509547 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have the same issue and actually started a separate bug report, prior to seeing this one. I am still using 9.04 on my laptop because neither 9.10 or 10.04 (up to Beta 2) will not do anything with my Huawei E620 3G modem. Network manager doesn't even recognise it in Beta 2. This really needs to be fixed as mobile computing is almost a necessity these days for many people. -- [lucid] (option) 3G USB modem unusable if inserted from boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/509547 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Same with netbook that have built in 3G (WWAN) modem. Booting from Live USB brings 3G modem up and running, but on installed system, I have to switch it off (hardware kill switch) and then on for system to see modem. -- [lucid] (option) 3G USB modem unusable if inserted from boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/509547 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

So far it seems option driver doesn't kick in when it should.

I also have a 3g modem issue. I am using a huawei e1762, The opposite is correct for me. Only if i have it inserted at boot is it likely to work. Seemed to be working perfectly for lucid alpha 3, until I installed all updates from the 7th of March 2010. After that 3G modem was very unreliably detected. And only if i insert it before boot. -- [lucid] (option) 3G USB modem unusable if inserted from boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/509547 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected ** Description changed: Binary package hint: network-manager If I happen to have my 3G USB modem inserted when my laptop boots, I cannot use the modem. Even unplugging and replugging the modem will not work, except maybe occasionally. As far as I can see, only rebooting with the modem unplugged works around the problem. This is on Lucid. I never had much luck with this modem and Karmic, but it worked flawlessly with Jaunty. lsusb: Bus 003 Device 002: ID 12d1:1001 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
