This modem is special as it's Gobi-based and requires firmware to be
installed. If NM tried to initialize the device before firmware has been
loaded, this tends to break firmware loading until the system is
restarted.

There's a fix in Oneiric now for this, so marking as Fix Released.

** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Fix Released

Title:
  HP hs2340 HSPA+ Mobile Broadband Modem does not work

Status in “modemmanager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Description:	Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS
  Release:	10.04
  network-manager:
    Installed: 0.8-0ubuntu3.2

  I have installed Ubuntu 10.04.2 on HP Probook 6560b. The internal
  Mobile Broadband Modem is HP hs2340, which is correctly identified.

  In neither the LTS release or the live CD of Oneiric Ocelot Alpha 3
  release does Mobile Broadband work 'out of the box'

  After fiddling around, I finally got the modem working. The missing
  bit was to do a hard shutdown from Windows, leaving the modem to an
  enabled state. After that, the connection worked instantly.

  Some remarks:
  =========
  - network-manager should really provide more information to what it is doing. In all previous attempts, network-manager would be doing something for a while with no result or error message

  - rfkill always listed the hp-wwan as 'not blocked'
