When I connected my Nokia 5800 Xpress Music with USB-cable
NetworkManager started a wizard that let me configure my connection
easy. In just a few seconds I could connect to the internet with my cell
phone (with operator 3).
I have a Huawei E180 with operator Tele2 and connected it to the same
computer. dmesg told me that the usb-modem was found and assigned a
/dev/ttyXX . Nothing happened with NetworkManager. I right-clicked on
nm-applet and edited my connections. Added a new Broadband Connection
for Tele2. When I left-click on nm-applet I can now choose to connect
with 3 or Tele2. So, everything is working fine.
My bug report is really an enhancement. I wish that NetworkManager had
recognised that my Huawei was a new device, which was not configured on
my laptop and therefor NM should have started the wizard for me. This
would make NM even easier for new users. I could figure out how to make
the connection, but my mum.. Naaah, dont think so :)
