Hi Marius Kotsbak,
yes my SIM and modem are working well, SIM PIN check is always disabled, my modem MF636 does NOT blink in red. I did not ever noticed a red led (I am not sure if exists), possibly we have slightly different h/w versions (that is why I mentioned my IMEI# in comment #68).
At this test I did not manage to 'use' the modem. Never shown at network manager icon but /dev/ttyUSB0-1-2 were created. Looking at /var/log/daemon.log I show trials to /dev/ttyUSB1! A ZTE modem canNOT be used via /dev/ttyUSB1, the usable data port is the last created, in our case /dev/ttyUSB2.
When the system cannot connect via nm & mm (as above) I can connect ALL TIMES using:
sudo stop network-manager
sudo killall modem-manager
sudo wvdial (or pppd ...)
as described in many comments above and http://
Concluding: It is not a modem's problem (PIN, signal, etc) but possibly a f/w or h/w variation.
My opinion is that the problem is around modem-manager or a timing-problem using the LiveUSB.
I can be online for 2-3 hours more for any new test (more tests tomorrow).
Regards,
George
