I am running into this with Hardy final release, FF3b5 and NM 0.6.6u5 when using a Kyocera kpc650 modem.

The only info I can add to this discussion is when I ran into this issue with Evolution, changing it to on-line mode in the file menu, wouldn't fix it, it showed the connected icon at the icon but wouldn't refresh my exchange connection.

That is probably an Evolution bug, but in my opinion it should contribute to the urgency of fixing this. The workaround described above works, but it annoys for so many reasons, even if just for the fact that the tray applet now shows no indication if my wired interface is plugged in or not.
