Title:
  Virgin Mobile Broadband USB dongle does not give web connection.

Status in modemmanager package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Various sources of information were checked and methods tried, but Ubuntu help pages gave quite simple advice - try unmounting (because it may have been recognised wrongly).  Running "lsusb" in terminal for information still shows:
  martinjmarsh@CP1:~$ lsusb
  Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
  Bus 003 Device 002: ID 09da:0006 A4 Tech Co., Ltd Optical Mouse WOP-35 / Trust 450L Optical Mouse

  martinjmarsh@CP1:~$ ubuntu-bug udev

  So, although it is virginmobile.uk (websites at www.virginmedia.com & www.virginmobile.co.uk) that the business relates to, the dongle seems to be a T & A device (it has already been tested and found to work OK on my two Windows XP computers).
  There is alot more info at:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkManager/Hardware/3G which I have not had time to sort out find a path to developing the pro know-how required.  Need to download Ubuntu updates?!
  This is an essential item for anyone thinking of moving to a residence without own landline or cable connection.
