Public bug reported:

Description:	Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
Release:	14.04

When I upgraded to 14.04 (3.13 kernel), the Pantech UML295 4G Modem
stopped functioning properly.

Expected behavior:
    The modem starts up with a red LED lit while it initialized.  Once a connection is established, linux recognizes a USB ethernet connection (cdc_ether), and the LED on the device goes green and flashing, indicating active connection.  This status remains until the device is disconnected.

Observed behavior:
    The modem starts up normally, getting to the point that a cdc_ether device is set up and a working internet connection is established.  Shortly after this, the modem's light goes blue (an LED color that the documentation shows no information for), the ethernet connection fails, and the device goes back to the beginning of its initialization.  The process will repeat indefinitely.

This behavior can be avoided, and a connection maintaned, by
blacklisting cdc_acm.  However, this breaks many other USB serial
devices.
