I have tested both 2.6.31-16.50lp446146apw5 and 2.6.31-16.50lp446146apw10, and attached the logs (usbmon and dmesg).

Results:
apw5 - exactly the same response as release kernel.
apw10 - works, BUT modem must be physically unplugged and reconnected. Everything seems to work, but it will not connect to the network if it was plugged in when the system booted. After unplugging, and reconnecting, it works fine (adding this post connected over the modem, using apw10).

Thanks!
