Binary package hint: udev

I have two usb mobile broadband devices
Both of them are recognized as usb modem (I checked dmesg output)
but the NetworkManager Applet 0.8 does not give me the options to start the connection

I filed this bug as suggested in 
https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/internet/C/troubleshooting-mobile.html

Ubuntu release:
Description:	Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS
Release:	10.04

apt-cache policy udev
udev:
  Installed: 151-12.1
  Candidate: 151-12.1
  Version table:
 *** 151-12.1 0

     151-12 0
        500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages

I expected to find, in the NetworkManager Applet menu, an item such as
"Mobile Broadband Networks"

I can only find "Wired Networks" and "Wireless Networks"
