I've reverted the udev usage and test now for 'easytether' when checking for the driver and assign driver to 'easytether' if so. I've diff'ed vs latest git, but tested vs 0.8.4 rc1 and it works fine for me. Torsten diff --git a/src/nm-udev-manager.c b/src/nm-udev-manager.c index 853c4fe..f20fe78

Hello, I've changed the hack to now check for a udev environment variable 'NM_PSEUDODRIVER'. If set, the lack of a driver is ignored. The /etc/udev/rules.d/easytether.rules declares this if an easytether0 device is detected. If need be I can revert it to check for 'easytether' in the code, but I

Hello, a 3G modem is no longer recognized by modem-manager when the system resumes. It seems the USB identification changes upon resume, from usb6/6-1 to usb6/6-2. This might be caused by udev rules? I've collected some logs here on Launchpad: dmesg after resume:
