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.
