Thanks Sugree. Your workaround works for me too!
I added 99-mm-gobi.rules to /etc/udev/rules.d with this contents:
ACTION!="add|change|move", GOTO="mm_gobi_end"
# gobi
# Bus 001 Device 007: ID 03f0:251d Hewlett-Packard Gobi 2000 Wireless Modem
# unset ID_MM_CANDIDATE on /dev/cdc-wdm*.

Title:
mobile broadband connectie fail (timeout)
Status in modemmanager package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
On Ubuntu 17.10 I cannot make a mobile broadband connection.
On my multiboot laptop with a Hewlett-Packard Gobi 2000 Wireless Modem I can
successfully connect to T-Mobile broadband network when I use Ubuntu 17.04
(Gnome), but not with Ubuntu 17.10 (Artful Aardvark) with the latest patches
applied.
The gobi-loader loads the firmware in both instances successfully ( the 3
ttyUSB ports are visible. I get a response on ttyUSB1 with an AT-command)
In the attached syslog you can see the connection times out.
