It would be somewhat hard, since the code doesn't mention most modems specifically. I or Tambet have tested NetworkManager 0.7.0 and/or 0.7.1 with at least the following devices. I have *-ed the ones I personally own. * Sony Ericsson F3507g (aka Dell 5530) Sony Ericsson MD300 * Sony Ericsson TM-506 (via USB cable) * LG PM325 (via USB cable) * BUSlink SCWi275u * Option iCON 225 * Option ICON 7.2 * Option GT MAX 3.6 (aka Option GT Ultra) Sierra Wireless AirCard 580 (Sprint) Sierra Wireless AirCard 881 (use latest AT&T firmware) * Sierra Wireless AirCard 860 Sierra Wireless AirCard 595U (Sprint/Verizon) * Sierra Wireless MC8775 * Huawei E160G Huawei E220 * Novatel Merlin S720 (Sprint/Verizon) * Novatel Merlin XU870 (aka Dell 5510) Novatel Ovation U727 (Sprint/Verizon) Novatel Merlin S620 (Sprint) * Qualcomm Gobi (GSM firmware) Kyocera KPC650 (Verizon) Verizon Wireless PC5750 Verizon Wireless UM175 Verizon Wireless KPC680 I have heard that NM works with the following additional devices: Huawei E169 Huawei EC121 (Reliance India) Huawei E168 (Reliance India) Option Nozomi (others I can't remember) In general, devices supported by the Linux 'option', 'hso', 'sierra', and 'nozomi' drivers will work with NetworkManager.
