[Bug 1542991] [NEW] Error after adding mobile broadband connection to network manager

 

Public bug reported:

I am running Ubuntu MATE 16.04 x64 Alpha 2. In network manager, I added
a new mobile broadband connection ("Bob" in "Austria") after
successfully unlocking the SIM card of the modem using modem-manager.
After the last step in the wizard an error message is being displayed:

Adding/activation of connection failed

(1) Creating object for path
'/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/2' failed in libnm-
glib.

The entry "Bob Vorgabe" (should be "Bob default" in English, I guess)
shows up in the network list in network manager, but when I click the
entry, network manager just shows the "connecting" icon for a fraction
of a second and then does nothing. syslog is enhanced with these lines:

Feb  8 07:40:16 TravelMateB115M NetworkManager[658]: <info>  Device 'ttyUSB1' has no connection; scheduling activate_check in 5 seconds.

In Xubuntu 12.10 and 14.04 I never experienced such issue.

My guess is that line #5 causes the problem, but I have no clue how to
tell it to only try IPv4.
