I have updated your original bug description so that bug testers will be able to find all the relevant information quickly. Now, if another Ubuntu user manages to reproduce the bug, we will be certain that it does not depend on your particular system configuration.
As I don't have a MEZON modem myself, if you know someone else that is willing to try out on his Ubuntu installation, please ask him to test and report here. I'm also asking on the Ubuntu IRC channels. For the moment, I'll leave the report status as "New". ** Description changed: - Software center not instaling deb files if here are not internet - connection. Also software center do not recognize Mezon internet. And - therefore do not install programs from the software center and deb - files. The install button is not active. But the Internet really is - working. + The SAMSUNG SWC-U200 MEZON USB modem (store link, in Lithuanian: + <http://www.mezon.lt/isigyk/papildoma-informacija/atnaujinkite-mezon- + usb-modemo-tvarkykles/id/712/>) is not detected by the most recent + version of NetworkManager (trunk version available at ppa:network- + manager/trunk on November 12th, 2011) even if the most recent drivers + (madwimax_160-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb) are installed. This makes some + applications that detect if an Internet connection if present (e.g. + Software Center) break. + + Workaround: stop NetworkManager (sudo stop networkmanager), so that + applications that query NetworkManager will operate in "fallback" mode + (they assume a connection has already been established). + + Log files are in comments #6 and #8. Relevant lines taken from a NetworkManager debug log: + NetworkManager[2254]: <warn> /sys/devices/virtual/net/wimax0: couldn't determine device driver; ignoring... + /sbin/ifup: interface lo already configured + NetworkManager[2254]: <info> modem-manager is now available + NetworkManager[2254]: SCPlugin-Ifupdown: devices removed (path: /sys/devices/virtual/net/wimax0, iface: wimax0) + NetworkManager[2254]: <warn> /sys/devices/virtual/net/wimax0: couldn't determine device driver; ignoring... + NetworkManager[2254]: SCPlugin-Ifupdown: devices added (path: /sys/devices/virtual/net/wimax0, iface: wimax0) + NetworkManager[2254]: SCPlugin-Ifupdown: device added (path: /sys/devices/virtual/net/wimax0, iface: wimax0): no ifupdown configuration found.
