If i try dialing in with my sierra wireless MC8775, nm-applet keeps asking me for my PIN forever.

Turns out that this card needs the PIN entering process on the second port (ttyUSB2), on the first port (ttyUSB0) it only returns "ERROR".

Excerpt from the pin entering session with comgt:

root@stoetzler:~# comgt -d /dev/ttyUSB0

Enter PIN number: 1234
ERROR entering PIN code
Caution! - entering the wrong PIN code three times will lock the SIM
root@stoetzler:~# comgt -d /dev/ttyUSB2

Enter PIN number: 1234
