Please note that the current situation effectively turns off umts/lte stick support for Ubuntu 16.04, because most of these devices require usb mode switching.
Please consider an upgrade of usb-modeswitch to 2.3.0 (I just installed that version from debian SID and could use mobile internet immediately) or at least downgrading usb-modeswitch-data (this would re-enable mobile internet support at least for users of old devices) . -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to usb-modeswitch in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1556296 Title: usb-modeswitch doesn't support usb-modeswitch-data 20160112-1 Status in usb-modeswitch package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hi, this is not a real bug, but it may be somehow annoying - there is a new version of usb-modeswitch-data (Proposed: 20160112-1), but the usb-modeswitch seems it doesn't work with this version so it cannot be upgraded.
