You can't see (easily) how much of the credit is left so when one is empty I have a backup. 2. Often you are at a location where not all providers get there with their signals so it might happen that from where you currently are only one of the two gets a network connection. I have a friend having two himself for the same reasons and I think other people do that too. 3. My personal third reason for having two: I want to help out with testing the mobile internet sticks (I do this on a regular basis with each new beta coming out). Since one of the last kernel updates for Ubuntu 10.04 it happens now, that the autoconnect of the two mobile connections does not work properly any more (I have set the mobile connections both to autoconnect). Either one of the two connection configurations get activated using the wrong modem (eg I plug in the Orange modem and the connection for Drei gets activated) or network manager totally refuses to connect after a short attempt. I cannot really say exactly what happens because there seem to occur different race conditions when I plug a modem in leading to slightly different effects when I try it several times. These are my two modems: The first one is from Drei: Bus 001 Device 005: ID 12d1:1003 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. E220 HSDPA Modem / E270 HSDPA/HSUPA Modem and the second from Orange: Bus 001 Device 007: ID 12d1:1001 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. E620 USB Modem I guess, network manager somehow does not save the IDs correctly I used when configuring the connection. However, in gconf-editor I cannot find an appropriate setting for network connections that tries to be the modem. What configuration files should I post that you can have a look or what logfiles in particular are of interest in this particular case?
