Update to my post #54 on 2010-02-06 As it seems, the firmware is not the problem. I found a wvdial script in this comment
http://www.ende-der-vernunft.org/2009/04/29/eine-pest-namens- networkmanager/comment-page-1/#comment-9912 that worked right away like this: 1) boot, HUAWEI not plugged. 2) plug in HUAWEI. (see dmesg output below) 3) wvdial -C name-of-script umts-pin (don't forget to enter your pin in the script) 3) wvdial -C name-of-script umts So the problem for me seems to be that NetworkManager or rather nm- applet (one of the best documented pieces of software on the planet, haha) does not notice that they could provide a PPP connection through UMTS. Is there anywhere documentation that explains the chain of events that ought to happen from plugging in the HUAWEI to nm-applet providing me the option to connect through it?
