I have the same bug description on 7.04 and 7.10 on 2 different laptops. While the ppp connection is launched correctly, the nm-applet just show the "no connection" icon.
However, contrary to current bug description, the logs don't show the message : "NetworkManager: <WARN> nm_system_activate_dialup(): Couldn't activate dialup device ppp0 via Modem (ppp0)" messages : Mar 6 09:27:36 bourdon chat[7664]: timeout set to 60 seconds Mar 6 09:27:36 bourdon chat[7664]: abort on (ERROR) Mar 6 09:27:36 bourdon chat[7664]: abort on (BUSY) Mar 6 09:27:36 bourdon chat[7664]: abort on (VOICE) Mar 6 09:27:36 bourdon chat[7664]: abort on (NO CARRIER) Mar 6 09:27:36 bourdon chat[7664]: abort on (NO DIALTONE) Mar 6 09:27:36 bourdon chat[7664]: abort on (NO DIAL TONE) Mar 6 09:27:36 bourdon chat[7664]: abort on (NO ANSWER) Mar 6 09:27:36 bourdon chat[7664]: send (ATZ^M) Mar 6 09:27:37 bourdon chat[7664]: send (AT&FH0L3^M) Mar 6 09:27:37 bourdon chat[7664]: expect (OK) Mar 6 09:27:37 bourdon chat[7664]: ATZ^M^M Mar 6 09:27:37 bourdon chat[7664]: OK Mar 6 09:27:37 bourdon chat[7664]: -- got it Mar 6 09:27:37 bourdon chat[7664]: send (ATDT122^M) Mar 6 09:27:37 bourdon chat[7664]: timeout set to 75 seconds Mar 6 09:27:37 bourdon chat[7664]: expect (CONNECT) Mar 6 09:27:37 bourdon chat[7664]: ^M Mar 6 09:27:37 bourdon chat[7664]: AT&FH0L3^M^M Mar 6 09:27:37 bourdon chat[7664]: OK^M Mar 6 09:27:37 bourdon chat[7664]: ATDT122^M^M Mar 6 09:28:10 bourdon chat[7664]: CONNECT Mar 6 09:28:10 bourdon chat[7664]: -- got it Mar 6 09:28:10 bourdon pppd[7557]: Serial connection established.
