I am just adding the detailed procedure I used to get the 'modemmanager log data' (in case a less experienced user like me is trying to find it):
0. boot without the modem, wait for the system to fully load 1. open a terminal window and stop network manager: sudo /etc/init.d/NetworkManager stop system responds: * Stopping network connection manager NetworkManager [ OK ] 2. find the modem-manager process number: ps -A | grep modem system responds: 2292 ? 00:00:00 modem-manager where in above example '2292' was the process number 3. kill the modem-manager process: sudo kill 2292 REPLACE 2292 with your results 4. run modem-manager in debug mode: sudo /usr/sbin/modem-manager --debug system responds some messages and remain there waiting for new triggers: ** Message: Loaded plugin Huawei ** Message: Loaded plugin Option High-Speed ... 5. open a NEW terminal window to start network manager: sudo /etc/init.d/NetworkManager start system responds: * Starting network connection manager NetworkManager [ OK ] 6. attach modem, wait at least 30 seconds for the full initialization 7. try to connect via network manager icon 8. wait at least 1 minute for the connection and if not established clisk disconnect 9. disconnect modem Finally copy paste all data from first terminal window (containing log data).
