How to NetworkManager

How to make a new mobilbroadband connection in Network Manager, I can't
find any WAN connection in Network Manager it only offers the following
options VPN,Binding,Hold,Bridge and Vlan and I don't believe that's
right for what I am trying to do.
Sorry for my bad English.

Any help would be appreciated 

Thanks

René

Is your modem plugged in to your system? 

I use KDE and even with no device there is an option to create a 
mobile-broadband connection.  But, maybe GNOME does things differently and 
you'll only get that option if a supported device is detected???

Have a read here...

Would you mind posting the relevant lines from the output of dmesg
after plugging in your device? Most of the mobile broadband devices
I've dealt with showed up as an Ethernet connection.

 Sorry for my bad English.

No need to worry, your English is fine.

Under XFCE I can right click on the NM icon, select Edit Connections,
click the + Add button and click in the drop-down menu provided in
the Choose a Connection Type popup. Under the Hardware category,
I see a Mobile Broadband option. Select it and click on the
Create... button and fill in the blanks.

Not sure how it'd look under Gnome or KDE. I refuse to use Gnome3 and
deal all of its idiocies and resource hogging, and I've never really
cared for the appearance of KDE.

Not available by default on Gnome, Gnome has its own interface to NM,
but Alt+F2 nm-connection-editor (or any other way to run it), can
provide the same interface as described ^^
