I only need to add usb_wwan to /etc/modules to make it work. The other
modules weren't necessary.

Title:
  USB 3G modem not found in Lubuntu

Status in network-manager-applet package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I have a USB 3G modem that works find in Kubuntu.  There, I can plug
  it in and the system automatically detects and sets it up.  It appears
  as a wired network interface and basically works out of the box with
  no actions needed on my part.  However, in Lubuntu, the same modem is
  not found and even the nm-connection-editor can't find it when I run
  it manually.

  The modem is a Huawei E3131:

  $ lsusb | grep -i huawei
  Bus 001 Device 006: ID 12d1:1f01 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 

  What should happen is that Lubuntu should find the modem and set it up
  like in Kubuntu.  I have read that others have 3G modems working so
  the issue might be with just this model of modem.
