Bug Description
My Mobile broadband APN is "prepaid internet" (note the space), however the network manager does not allow me to add a space character.
Having a space in the APN name is valid and works on my Galaxy S phone, so I know the name is both legal and valid.

Ok, I got my connection to work using an empty APN setting.
I have tried using minicom to get the dongle to accept "prepaid internet" as an APN, and I still don't get how the Galaxy S phone running Android will except "prepaid internet" as a valid APN. I've tried a few different escape sequences, but none of them allowed me to have a space in my APN setting AT command.
In the end I got "AH Prepaid Mobiel internet" with an Huawei E153u~1 model dongle working. I think the thing that got it to work was rebooting to windows and setting the connection type to "RAS (modem)" instead of "NDIS" in the Mobile Partner program that comes with the stick. This changed my modem status from: 48,6,0) ,(61,61, 48,6,1) ,(240,240, 52,6,2) ; ,"","0. 0.0.0", 0,0) 0,0,0,2, 0,"0E0" ,"0E0", 3,0,0), (2,2,0, 0,0,0,2, 0,"0E0" ,"0E0", 3,0,0), (3,2,0, 0,0,0,2, 0,"0E0" ,"0E0", 3,0,0), (4,2,0, 0,0,0,2, 0,"0E0" ,"0E0", 3,0,0), (5,2,0, 0,0,0,2, 0,"0E0" ,"0E0", 3,0,0), (6,2,0, 0,0,0,2, 0,"0E0" ,"0E0", 3,0,0), (7,2,0, 0,0,0,2, 0,"0E0" ,"0E0", 3,0,0), (8,2,0, 0,0,0,2, 0,"0E0" ,"0E0", 3,0,0), (9,2,0, 0,0,0,2, 0,"0E0" ,"0E0", 3,0,0), (10,2,0, 0,0,0,2, 0,"0E0" ,"0E0", 3,0,0), (11,2,0, 0,0,0,2, 0,"0E0" ,"0E0", 3,0,0), (12,2,0, 0,0,0,2, 0,"0E0" ,"0E0", 3,0,0), (13,2,0, 0,0,0,2, 0,"0E0" ,"0E0", 3,0,0), (14,2,0, 0,0,0,2, 0,"0E0" ,"0E0", 3,0,0), (15,2,0, 0,0,0,2, 0,"0E0" ,"0E0", 3,0,0), (16,2,0, 0,0,0,2, 0,"0E0" ,"0E0", 3,0,0)
