Unfortunately it's not working with NetworkManager in Jaunty.

There has been some improvement - inserting the USB dongle does trigger the wizard to configure mobile broadband. I've tried all the O2 variants, though, and none work.

There is a workaround, using ppp and a chatscript. The key for me was to try each of the different ttyUSBn devices sequentially. Using pppd directly, and using ttyUSB3, worked. I will attach a copy of lsusb output, and the relevant pppd peer configuration and chatscript which work reliably, but don't know how to turn that into a working NetworkManager config.
