Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-manager
I'm using an Asus EeePC 1000H and am trying to use my Option Icon 225 internet USB stick (got this by Orange Switzerland). I seem to encounter similar problems as other users wrote, but on a brand new installed and completely updated Jaunty Jackalope (9.04).
This is what happens and can be reproduced: When I connect the stick the first time, a wizard appears, which lets me choose my country (Switzerland) and my provider (Orange). After clicking "Apply" (I'm not sure about the English menus, buttons and dialogs) a message appears at the upper right corner. It tells me that I can start the connection by clicking on the network icon. I do this, select "Orange". After that I get a small dialog box asking for the PIN code, which I type in correctly. Everything looks great, but then it will not connect. There's a small black box at the upper right corner telling me: "GSM Network - you are now offline". It doesn't matter if I boot the EeePC with the stick connected or if I connect it afterwards.
On that EeePC I first had Xandros (preinstalled by Asus). The stick worked there, but I prefer Ubuntu.
I attach two log files (syslog and serial log) of what's logged while connecting the stick and trying to get it work.
If you need other logs, please tell me how to get them. I'm not very experienced in this.

I have the exact same problem, however, i'm using Option GTM380 pci-e card with Celcom ISP (Malaysia). I start the connection then it will show "GSM Network - you are now offline". From the log, it shows "Modem initialization timed out" (stage 1 of 5)... Hope somebody can help to fix this, Thanks!
p/s: It's ok on intrepid, but break when i clean installed Jaunty.
