Yes, it's hidden, because NM 0.7.1 doesn't have the infrastructure to support that. Please see: http://blogs.gnome.org/dcbw/2009/03/20/thats-when-i-reach-for-my-revolver/ basically, *every* vendor implements the prefer 2G/3G command differently, which is quite annoying. This functionality is supported on the NM 'master' development branch, which uses ModemManager, which has a plugin architecture that allows us to special-case whatever crackrock commands the OEM decides to impose on users. Seriously though, I can't believe there are like 5 different AT commands for setting 2g/3g preference. It's not that hard a thing to standardize, but I guess the 3GPP got caught with their pants down.
