That's pretty standard; already done by NM/MM. > Init2 = AT&F &D2 &C1 AT&F resets to factory settings, and that shouldn't really be necessary either. > Init3 = ATS7=60 S30=0 S0=0 S7 is "wait time for remote carrier", which usually defaults to 30. I'd be surprised if it's really taking more than 30 seconds to connect, but who knows. That one *might* be interesting. Can you try leaving it out and see how that works? S30 is "inactivity disconnect timer". S0 is "# rings before auto-answer", which is irrelevant here. > Init4 = AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","internetg" And this should already be done by NM as long as we either (a) have the settings for cellcom Israel, or (b) you've entered the right APN in the connection editor for your connection. Also, you may want to enter a fake username/password as some modems really want that. Can you ensure you have the correct APN set in the connection editor for your connection first? If that fails, lets run NM manually with NM_PPP_DEBUG=1 to find out what's going on. Next, what is the contents of /etc/resolv.conf after it's "connected" but doesn't work?
