Sam,
I've just read your post.
Am currently doing a review of 4G network providers...and so far am testing
Orange. It turns out, unlike MTN, their 4G falls back to 3/2G meaning that
should you be in a non-4G site, then you can still be connected on 3G.
That's one marketing stunt Orange is using
Linux - doesn't appear anywhere in the report.

Am going to install the modem-manger GUI. I need it for sending USSD
codes(that's loading data and so forth) with using the buggy mobile partner
software. Been looking for something like that.

I use the modem-manager to connect my USB internet modems that work with
ZTE(not all) and Huawei modems quiet well. I tried installing the mobile
partner software that comes with Airtel modems on my box, but it was so
buggy, it couldn't work, so i had to fall back to the in-built
modem-manager.
