Comment 186 for bug 446146

I can confirm that E620 now works correctly, i.e I can go online and browse etc, using Vodafone Mobile Connect in Kubuntu Karmic on AMD64 with the 2.6.31-15-generic kernel.

Plugged in and out, and went on and off line several times, it worked at every attempt. And, it reverted correctly to ethernet or wifi afterwards.

But I am using wicd, not network-manager!

There may be a slight anomaly, as it seems to occupy ttyUSB0, 1 and 2. Should it do that?

Acer Aspire 7520 (AMD Athlon X2, Nvidia Gforce 7000M, with 2xSATA drives and non-standard Broadcom wireless card.
