You have been subscribed to a public bug: There is a selection in Network Manager mobile settings saying "connect automatically". Before this setting has really done what it says: connected a mobile connection automatically.
In 12.04 this is broken: user has to connect manually. The I believe this is a mistake and the setting should connect the computer to 3g network right after boot/login. The version on NM I am using is 0.9.4.0-0ubuntu4.1 Distro version: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS There are workarounds like this one: http://www.thefanclub.co.za/how-to /how-auto-connect-ubuntu-1204-gsm-mobile-broadband-connection-on-boot- startup-service There should be no need for workarounds if Network Manager would work like it is supposed to. The wanted behaviour, autoconnect, has been working in previous versions. ** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Network manager does not not autoconnect 3g in 12.04 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1088383 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
