Hey Radu, Which modem is this? If it's a Huawei modem, your issue may be known (wrong tty used for data).

You're not the only one confused about this: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=658230 > * The connection that I used for making the debug capture is > manually added, using "Edit connections..." -> Add, and then > selecting my provider/plan from the list.

Your modem has probably different PDP contexts configured (APNs, IP type...), ModemManager will try to activate the PDP context corresponding to the settings you passed, the one with CID=2 in your case. Nothing to worry about here, unless you're really passing the wrong APN in the settings. > > I'm an experienced linux user with fairly decent programming knowledge, > so I can assist at least with tests and debugging data if anyone is > willing to help me.

See the "Debugging NetworkManager 0.8 and 0.9 3G connections" section at https://live.gnome.org/NetworkManager/Debugging.
