Here are my test results with the Huawei E160G:

Test 1: Current officially released kernel
I have clicked 3 times manually on Network Manager->(Mobile Broadband) Drei and 
nothing helped.

The log1a is after about 5 minutes after suddenly (didn't expect it
anymore) the connection has been established.


Test 2: apw5 Kernel
I have clicked 2 times manually on Network Manager->(Mobile Broadband) Drei and 
nothing helped.
In the logs log2 is with WLAN additionally enabled, log2a is without.


Test 3: apw10 Kernel
On the first attempt plugging the mobile internet stick nothing happened (log3).
On the second attempt (log3a) it worked.
I notice that the drive does not get mounted as in Test 1 (and unfortunately I 
don't remember how it was on test2).

Test 4: Most recent development kernel (2.6.32-020632rc6)
log4 is my first attempt. The drive from the stick gets mounted. After clicking 
manually on the Network Manager->(Mobile Broadband) Drei it works.
Second attempt fails - I can't get it to work any more even if clicking several 
times manually to connect.

Test 5: Most recent development kernel (2.6.32-020632rc6) - After another reboot
I plug in the stick and wait until the message is displayed that GSM is 
disconnected. I click on 'Drei'.
It does not work either (log5).
Second attempt without success (log5a). BTW: Drive from the stick gets mounted.
Third attempt without success (log5b). BTW: Drive from the stick gets mounted. 
I try unmount and then reconnect without success.
Fourth attempt (log5c) using other USB port - message that disconnected comes 
quite fast, then drive gets mounted - no success.
Fifth attempt (log5d) 
Sixth attempt (log5e) logged in a separate session before login - anyway did 
not work with the modem plugged in before login.

Test 6: Back on apw10 Kernel
It works only the first time I connect the stick!
Each further attempt (I did a few times) it does not work any more (log6).

What I notice is that in general the animated icon of network manager
hangs with the tooltip "Preparing mobile broadband connection 'Drei'"
after I plugged in the.


==> However, the apw10 kernel seems the only one I can get a connection at 
least the first time - did not try more often. I remember that on Jaunty with 
some older kernel I sometimes had to plugin the stick also a few times until it 
worked.

==> Anyway, my opinion is that the last released kernel in Jaunty was
the one where it worked best for me.
