Hello,
I'm using NetworkManager 0.8 / ModemManager 0.3 on Arch Linux in
Austria, my provider is A1 on an Ericsson F3507g HSPA card. It is
necessary to authenticate as user "[email protected]".
With the current NM/MM it is impossible to authenticate with this
username (because of the "@" symbol), the card needs to be put into
UTF-8 mode first (Thanks to Torgny Johansson for pointing this out on
the mbm-devel list). The attached patch forces UTF-8 if an
authentication is requested. It is against MM 0.3 as found in Arch, but
it should apply with a small offset to the current git as well.
I'm not sure if it is safe to force UTF-8 for everyone, but at least it
works for me!
However, I'm experiencing another small problem with the Ericsson card:
I have to enter the password manually everytime I fire up the
connection. If I use a Huawei K3715 HSPA stick, it connects happily
without asking first. Is this a known problem with the Ericsson card?
