I have a Huawei E367 on 11.10 and I frequently have to reconnect my USB modem if I haven't been using my computer for a while and come back and there is no connection.

First connection to the network on my 3G USB modem works perfectly. However, if I lose connection (if I'm moving and roam outside cell coverage) then I lose connection but when I come back into coverage (blue blinking light on modem indicates coverage) I am unable to reconnect. Each time I select the network from the nm-applet I just get the OSD notify that the GSM network disconnected. Unplugging and re-plugging in my modem does not help. The only way to successfully connect is by rebooting my laptop.
