[Bug 883717] [NEW] Unable to connect to internet through Mobile Broadband after an update to 11.10

 

Public bug reported:

I am unable to connect to internet through my usb EVDO device after an
upgradation of my operating system(ubuntu-11.04 to ubuntu-11.10) and
hence the network manager(0.8.4 to 0.9.1.90) shipped with it.

I can connect to the internet by using 'wvdial' from the command-line.

I am attaching the logs as specified in
http://live.gnome.org/NetworkManager/Debugging. Some other required
details are as below.

1) The release of Ubuntu I am using
kempa@kempa-Notebook-PC:~$ lsb_release -rd

Release:	11.10

2) The version of the package I am using
