I have a bare-metal install of lucid 10.04.2. The bug seems to have been resolved.

Rogers ZTE MF668 USB modem

Booted up with modem in USB socket. Later tried inserting the USB modem into a running system. Both worked. I document the "boot up" path here.

Wizard recognized and set up the modem as designed. That is, I right-clicked on the "network manager applet" icon in the right side of the upper panel, chose "enable mobile broadband", then proceeded to "regular click" the "network manager applet" icon and chose "new mobile broadband (GSM) connection". Rogers (Canada) presets were accepted unchanged.
