[Bug 705196] Re: Network Manager no longer supports mobile broadband connections
Hi, I've just updated to 11.4 and since then I haven't been able to use my broadband modem. It's detected correctly (see it in messages log) and tried other modem too, but nothing is shown in network manager, not the enable broadband neither the modem in the add broadband wizard. I really need to use my broadband modem, if I don't get a work arround soon, I'll have to go back to 10.10 somehow.

Had the same problem. Enable mobile broadband shows up in the menu, but only to immediately dissapear again. I used the natty version that was released on March 30th (I can't be sure if the fix was already applied though). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/705196 Title: Network Manager no longer supports mobile broadband connections -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Mike, please file a separate bug. Note however that you can't just create a new connection for Mobile Broadband connections to work, the modem device to use them also needs to be detected, available, and usable. Please use 'ubuntu-bug network-manager' to open a new bug and attach the necessary information to it, then report back with the bug report number here.

Noel, there was code put in to workaround bug 706500, but it didn't work properly. The above revision reverts it. Please let me know if things work for you that way.

Brian, just so I understand, why did you mark this bug as regression- release instead of regression-potential, when this effects only natty (so far)?

[Bug 705196] Re: Network Manager no longer supports mobile broadband connections
I tend to concur, although I personally take a very dim view of that change, which I consider to be the wrong direction. I have more than once enjoyed the fact that those settings were separate, and see no reason for this new Flight Mode other than as a me, too type of change (and only partially successful because, other than being broken, a real Flight Mode would also disable Bluetooth). If anything, I'd have *added* the new feature as Enable|Disable All Radios without removing the existing separate toggles. In my view, the change should be reverted, as it is not an improvement to the code. The contents of that file are: [main] NetworkingEnabled=true WirelessEnabled=true WWANEnabled=true which is the same as on my working 10.10 version (and the same as they were before the recent breakage). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/705196 Title: Network Manager no longer supports mobile broadband connections -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 705196] Re: Network Manager no longer supports mobile broadband connections
So if WWAN is enabled on your system, what about the killswitch? Jan 19 17:52:38 localhost NetworkManager[838]: info WWAN now disabled by radio killswitch Seems to tell us that it would be disabled, so you might want to try the usual hotkeys like Fn-F7 or whatever it is on your system, or directly on the modem. As for the changes themselves, while we're still in alpha I'm still experimenting to find a good design that will look sane, so I might revise and rework this as time goes. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/705196 Title: Network Manager no longer supports mobile broadband connections -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 705196] Re: Network Manager no longer supports mobile broadband connections
Sounds like you've found the bug, since there IS NO KILL SWITCH for the WWAN. :-) It is a USB plugged in modem. There is a kill switch for my WIFI and Bluetooth, and those are fully on and operational.

[Bug 705196] Re: Network Manager no longer supports mobile broadband connections
Not quite found, because it doesn't mean that even if you downgrade nm- applet, you'd be able to use the modem. Could you try that? I haven't changed code paths that would have such an effect, unless the modem was already disabled with wifi enabled, but that would be in the state file. Also, is there anything indicating an rfkill switch for the modem in rfkill list ? ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/705196 Title: Network Manager no longer supports mobile broadband connections -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
