[Bug 874900] Re: "Enable mobile broadband" option gets unchecked

 

Thought I have found a solution but I don't. But I tell you.

Goto "system settings" then "network" and under "mobile broadband" there
is in the lower right corner an option "airplane mode". It was
aktivated. I thought deactivating could solve the problem but it
doesn't.

But what in the world should this function do? It's activated and I can
connect - not automatically but...

Maybe someone can help?
