Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager
Previous to NM 0.7 I used comgt and wvdial for 3G. I could report my
signal strength with comgt. If there is a standardized way to do this,
it could be reported in NM just as it is for wireless.
$ comgt help
comgt Usage: comgt [options] [built in script]'|[external script]
Built in scripts -
comgt [default] Checks SIM status (requests PIN if required),
registration and signal strength reported by
datacard.
comgt info Display configuration of datacard.
comgt sig Report Signal strength.
comgt reg Report Registration status.
comgt PIN Set PIN using COMGTPIN env variable.
comgt APN Set APN using COMGTAPN env variable.
