This is a problem for Traveling Admins like myself.   We don't always
have access to wifi or other broadband servies. But we do usually, or at
least in my case have a broadband cellular Modem.  I spent several hours
trouble shooting this only to find it was working all the time.  I did
finally down load wvdial and gnome-ppp.  But since nm does not recognise
the ppp connection is up, I have to spend time bringing up vpn from the
command line and coaxing other applications to work in on-line mode.

I downloaded minicom for trouble shooting.  My modem accepts all
expected AT command strings and returns all expected reults.  This seems
to be one of those basic fundamental problems that would be simple to
fix.  I would like to be willing to fix it myself and submit a diff
patch, But I have no idea where to look for the root of the problem.

Thanx
Kevin Hudson
