I see that in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/964705
the "Cancel" workaround was used already. Sorry.
However I should add, that with my Ubuntu 16.04.1 I had also to add a new file
/lib/udev/rules.d/70-usb-modeswitch.rules
to get networking with my Aldi/Medion Mobile Huawei E173:
# own udev rules for Aldi/Medion Huawei E173
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="12d1",
ATTRS{idProduct}=="1446", RUN+="/usr/sbin/usb_modeswitch -v 12d1 -p 1446 -M
'55534243123456780011062001'"
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="12d1",
ATTRS{idProduct}=="1436", RUN+="/bin/bash -c 'modprobe option && echo 12d1 1436
> /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/option1/new_id'"
(Modified from https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/USB_ModeSwitch/). Probably
nother 16.04 bug.

Ubuntu 16.04.1 System policy prevents modification of network settings
for all users
Status in modemmanager package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Same bug as described for Ubuntu 15.04 (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/964705)
is still in my Ubuntu 16.04.1! My workaround is simple but strange:
After switching on my notebook, booting into Ubuntu 16.04.1, and being
at the login screen, before having logged into any user, the SIM-PIN
menu appears. I key in the SIM-PIN, hit the button, then I am
asked again for the SIM-PIN, this time with the error message
"PolicyKit authorization failed: challenge needed for
org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.Device.Control". My workaround:
Hit the button
After that, I am able to log in and connect with my Aldi/Medion Huawei
E173 USB stick to the network, if I am an AdminUser. For a user
without Admin-rights it is a little bit more complicated after having
logged in: he has to unlock the SIM pin again, then he is asked for
the Admin passwort because necessary administrative rights. He has to
hit twice, but then he can connect to the network without any
knowledge of the Admin-paswort. Strange!
Will Ubuntu 16.04 sometime come to the point of enabling mobile
networking as simple as it was with Ubuntu 14.04?
Thank you,
