2009-08-17 15:27:39 Tobias Pflug summary karmic: connection through usb GSM stick stopped working karmic: huawei gsm modem not working anymore
2009-08-17 15:27:39 Tobias Pflug description I'm using a Fonic Surfstick (Huawei E220 usb id 12d1:1003) which works fine under Jaunty but connections cannot be established under current karmic with all updates installed as of today. pppd does not report anything suspicious and obtains two DNS entries. Those however are not written to /etc/resolv.conf and the connection does not complete for some reason. This is also indicated by the network-manager panel icon which remains in the animated 'connecting' state. pppd does report that it cannot determine the remote ip, but that is also the case under the jaunty and does not really matter anyway. The route is set as expected (everything routed through the default ppp remote ip 10.64.64.64) plugging the card in my desktop PC running jaunty everything works as expected. Using the guided setup from network-manager the provider (FONIC) is selected and PIN entered. Connection works out of the box. I'm using a Fonic Surfstick (Huawei E220 usb id 12d1:1003) which works fine under Jaunty but connections cannot be established under current karmic with all updates installed as of today. Looking at the output of /var/log/messages and /var/log/daemon.log it appears that network-manager (or modem-manager?) is stuck after completion of stage 4. It stops at after reaching "(IP4 Configure Get) complete" and never starts with Stage 5. At this point the usb modem already reports a stable connection. I would have added the output of `modem-manager debug` but I don't know how to start the modem-manager in debug mode. If anyone provides info I can log that as well. I should mention that this works fine on my desktop PC running Jaunty.

I should mention that this works fine on my desktop PC running Jaunty. On a laptop running Ubuntu Karmic (all updates installed as of today) NetworkManager fails to establish an internet connection using a Huawei 160 (reported by `lsusb` as E220/270) USB/HDSPA modem. (The same works fine under Jaunty) Steps to reproduce: 1. Plug in the huawei usb stick and follow the network manager setup steps selecting Germany / FONIC as provider and enter PIN number. Other settings remain as-is - login and password remain empty. 2. Select connect in the network-manager applett 3. After some time the usb-stick will indicate through constant blue LED that a connection has successfully been established however the network manager does not report establishment of a connection. The applet icon is still animating indicating a "connecting.." state. Details: Nothing changes after step 3 until I cancel the connection. Looking at the output of /var/log/messages and /var/log/daemon.log it appears that network manager only gets to Stage 4 but Stage 5 (Committing IPv4 Config) never actually starts nor does the log display its scheduling. If I specify some random username and password network manager will segfault. No further details on this right now
