ok, first. please lets use this bug only for the issue that the modem isn't detected at all. If there are other bugs that make it not work lets track it elsewhere.

The problem that modems are not detected was introduced in the last jaunty upload (0.7.1~rc3.1.git4cf2da146-0ubuntu1) because the .rules file we ship there seems to be bogus. The symptoms are that you don't see _any_ 3G connection in the applet; this is because you see something like:

Mar 23 09:44:34 test1 NetworkManager: <info> (ttyUSB0): found serial port (udev: hal:GSM)
Mar 23 09:44:34 test1 NetworkManager: <info> (ttyUSB0): ignoring due to lack of probed mobile broadband capabilties
Mar 23 09:44:34 test1 NetworkManager: <info> (ttyUSB1): ignoring due to lack of mobile broadband capabilties
