Bug Description
I have a T-Mobile 1750 dongle.I have added a rule as per forums for this dongle. Made no different with or without. Mostly it works without problems.However, sometimes, I get a dialog box in which a password is requested. If I enter the password in the Connection Details or sudo password that fails. This line appears in the system logs:
get_secret.flags: 'assertion is_secret_
Sometimes deleting the connection and starting with a new connection works. Sometimes removing the dongle and replacing works. Sometimes nothing works but then it starts working again. This is a recurrent problem from 2009 onwards.
