Title:
  Mobile broadband fails after dropout

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  My Huawei E1762 modem is the only method I use to connect to the
  internet. If a dropout occurs (sometime frequently in my location),
  the modem is no longer recognised by network-manager and I can't
  reconnect.

  I have tried sudo restart network-manager and sudo restart
  modemmanager, this works sometimes after several minutes, but is so
  inconsistent, it's  quicker to simply reboot to get a connect to the
  web. I have also tried physically pulling the usb modem and
  reinserting with a combination of the above commands -- nothing seems
  to work consistently in 11.10.

  In 11.04, I could run sudo killall modem-manager from a remote desktop
  and get my network going again.

  I'm not sure what logs would help debug this. Advice would be appreciated, please.
