Public bug reported:
I have a wireless broadband card by Sierra wireless, model 887A.
This card always worked great from command line (pppd) as well as from
Network Manager.
However, lately, when activated from Network Manager applet, the applet
starts the connection, and according to my /var/log/messages, the
connection succeeds. However, after several more seconds the applet says
"disconnected" and drops the connection.
I believe that it is able to connect fully successfully, but fails to
see the connection as succcessful.

This is an intermittent issue, but it happens more than half the time.
At the same time, when that sort of thing happens, it is usualy unable
to connect to my wifi also.
