Bug Description

installed Lubuntu 14.04.

What i want to do:
Push the start button of the laptop computer, after that it logins automagically to the desktop and connects to internet via usb gsm 3G dongle.

What happens:
(somehow managet to find the place to setup the connection, why wont it pop out if i put in the dongle? not to mention the nm-applet is not coming up even if put to lxde startup settings)
I cheked every possible checkbox for automatic connection (nm-applet i think) and entered sim card pin code and press save button.
After restart nothing works, it asks for some keyring password, it asks for sim unlock pin, and still does not connect because Mobile Broadband Connections are not activated.

Help me god! Its like nothing has changed for 4 years since i first got that huawei dongle and installed ubuntu-gnome.

Could you please fix it once and for all.
I have no idea where to report the bugs.
I read some of the reports, answers are like this: no, this is not pam-module bug, this is gnome-login bug etc. I dont care and i dont know those specific packages! I just know that things dont work for at least 4 years.

Would someone with knowledge, please report the correct bugs, and make them to correct those bugs. Thank you!
