I have a Sierra Wireless AirCard USBConnect 881U 3G/HSDPA/UMTS USB modem.
This device works out of the box on Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex 8.10 but I cannot get it to work using Ubuntu 9.04's NetworkManager.
I tried wvdial/wvdialconf but not successful for some reason.
I tried gnome-ppp but gnome-ppp prompts for a password that my ISP (Telkomsel Flash) do not require (and therefore must be left empty).
I am using UMTSMon to connect and it works flawlessly with this modem, save for some quirks (Firefox/Pidgin detecting as offline etc.) because I'm using UMTSMon, not NetworkManager.
Note that I also have Nokia E71 and it works well as 3G modem with NetworkManager.
Binary package hint: network-manager
