My up-to-date natty install now detects the USB dongle, asks for a PIN and successfully connects to the network. As far as I can tell the bug has been fixed. The network-manager version itself seems to be the same so something else must have fixed this.

Unlike previous versions of Ubuntu the mode switching between mass storage and serial is done automatically in udev and 4 tty devices are created (/dev/ttyUSB0..3). The problem is that network manager has absolutely no reaction to the plugging in of the card. The interface does not change and nothing shows up in the log.
