Hi
I tried to use my mobile phone as a gsm modem.
I had strange error at the PPP connection time. Basically along the
lines of:
PAP authentication succeeded
** Message: nm-ppp-plugin: (nm_phasechange): status 8 / phase 'network'
sent [CCP ConfReq id=0x1 <deflate 15> <deflate(old#) 15> <bsd v1 15>]

Modem hangup
(This is from running NM_PPP_DEBUG=1 NetworkManager --no-daemon )
After some debugging and consulting the #nm IRC channel, it eventually
turned out that the problem is in the APN value I used. It contained an
extra space in the end.
The source for that extra space is:
$ grep -A8 Pelephone
/usr/share/mobile-broadband-provider-info/serviceproviders.xml
<name>Pelephone</name>
<gsm>
<network-id mcc="425" mnc="03"/>
<apn value="internet.pelephone.net.il ">
<name>3G</name>
<username>p...@3g</username>
<password>pcl</password>
</apn>
</gsm>
Note the 'value' attribute of the <apn> tag.
So if you want to connect there, make sure you don't have a trailing
space for the 'apn' value.
BTW: wvdial turned out to be generally simpler and with more chances of
working. But you have to tell it which TTY to use, which is annoying.
My current wvdial.conf: (I used 'wvdial Samsung pelephone')
