Bug Description
It started as part of bug #546728 but since user svaens says that the solution (install usb-modeswitch and usb-modeswitch-data - see bug #546728) does not work for him, this is another bug.

I am using Huawei E160E HSDPA
It was no good in Karmic, and it is worse in Lucid.
The fix:
sudo aptitude install usb-modeswitch usb-modeswitch-data
doesn't help at all.
I have resorted to buying a 3G Router ..... cost me $180 (still better than the alternatives)

Hello,
Have you try to install modemmanager package ? In ubuntu-fr.org, somebody has made his E160 modem work with this package. He says the package sends dbus informations of the modem to network-manager.
