[Bug 841624] [NEW] Cannot connect to 3G (via Longcheer USB Modem) on latest Oneirc update (after Beta 1)

  Thread Previous • Date Previous • • Thread Next 
Public bug reported:

Prior to latest update (but after last full upgrade to Oneiric Beta 1,)
3G connection using a Longcheer WM66A modem was possible.  As of
September 3 update of network-manager, the modem dials and connects
successfully, but disconnects immediately due to a 'ip-config-
unavailable' reason:
