[Bug 880084] [NEW] Mobile Broadband must be enabled after every power on, suspend, hibernate, or signal loss

 

Public bug reported:

I have auto connect set for my 3G mobile broadband connection, but at
every power-on or resume from suspend or hibernate I have to re-enable
mobile broadband before it will auto connect.  This is made worse by bug
#566812 where a disconnect can also disable the mobile broadband
completely.

With 10.04 3G connections while on the move were reasonably robust and
reliable, however NetworkManager under Ubuntu 11.10 is flaky and
unreliable.
