Public bug reported:
I've tried to connect my Globetrotter Icon 7.2 UMTS Modem
(usb_modeswitch active) with Orange Switzerland using the Gnome Network
Manager. The predefined value for APN (defined as «click») is wrong
imho, if you try to connect with this value the ppd is unable to
connect.

I searched the Internet and finally got it working when i use the value
«mobileoffice3g». I suggest to change it to a working value in further
releases.
