For me it is working below 16.04 if I tweak my system. 1. The udev rules tweak isn't needed any more - it is in the package version of the file now correct.
2. Check 'lsmod |grep cdc' - below xenial the modules aren't loaded any more Add to /etc/modules a line with the content: cdc-wdm After that the gsm modem is working again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to modemmanager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/838757 Title: HP hs2340 HSPA+ Mobile Broadband Modem does not work Status in modemmanager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in modemmanager package in Debian: New Bug description: Description: Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS Release: 10.04 network-manager: Installed: 0.8-0ubuntu3.2 I have installed Ubuntu 10.04.2 on HP Probook 6560b. The internal Mobile Broadband Modem is HP hs2340, which is correctly identified. In neither the LTS release or the live CD of Oneiric Ocelot Alpha 3 release does Mobile Broadband work 'out of the box' After fiddling around, I finally got the modem working. The missing bit was to do a hard shutdown from Windows, leaving the modem to an enabled state. After that, the connection worked instantly. Some remarks: ========= - network-manager should really provide more information to what it is doing. In all previous attempts, network-manager would be doing something for a while with no result or error message - rfkill always listed the hp-wwan as 'not blocked' To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/modemmanager/+bug/838757/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
