Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-manager
When I plug in my Huawei E1552 Mobile Broadband Modem, I get the provider's icon on the desktop after a while (Orange in Austria), but network-manager does not recognize it. Even trying to manually add the connection does not help.
Network manager either does not show enable or disable menu entry in the context menu (right mousebutton).
I already attached the modem to a Windows machine and either disabled pin code.

Fortunately I have an additional modem (that was my first, I bought the E1552 as a backup and to help testing the broadband modems - as there have been several related problems already). That other one is showing up as E220 / E270 in lsusb and that one works like a charm.
BTW: This bug is related to Ubuntu 10.04 beta 2, on Ubuntu 9.10 both modems work - so this is a regression!
