If answered already sorry for the general question  -  searched archives and 
did not see much.

I am wondering if there is support (on any 3G UMTS device) for simultaneous 
multiple-PDP contexts in NetworkManager.

We have Qualcomm-based and other vendor commercial phones and dongles which 
support multiple-PDP context but no way to have active data over multiple 
contexts (3 simultaneous is desired).

I assume this would require underlying USB driver support which creates virtual 
USB endpoints that are associated to each pdp which is sent across the physical 
usb endpoint.
I saw Dan Williams' April 2010 blog "Mobile Broadband and Qualcomm Proprietary 
Protocols<http://blogs.gnome.org/dcbw/2010/04/15/mobile-broadband-and-qualcomm-proprietary-protocols/>"
 which gives some hints about how this might be done for QC Qmi interface and 
know from generic web search that multiple-PDP context support has been done 
this way.
Maybe just last note - specific need is to send simultaneous flows over 3 PDP 
contexts.  The creation and configuration of multiple contexts via AT-commands 
is known.
If there is any specific information as to status in NetworkManager feedback 
would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
J. Baranowski
