Public bug reported: Today I use umtsmon under Ubuntu 8.04 to connect to 3g-network with my Huawei E169 USB Stick. This works quite well and I didn't need to configure any network settings like apn, user or password for the network connection. The only problem today is, that Ubuntu didn't recognize this usb stick after booting my machine.
So I tried Ubuntu 8.10, because I read a lot about the new network- manager and 3G support. The usb stick works quite will, but the only problem is, that the the network-manager don't use the default configuration - which is stored an the usb-stick so far as I know. So I have to configure my network settings like apn, user and password manually. But for the average user it would be great, if they could plug in the usb device and connect to the network without any configuration issue.
