I can confirm a similar situation here when using Networkmanager and
modemmanager as suplplied by ubuntu maverick repos. Last version that
worked for me was modemmanager 0.3.0 in lucid. My data is:
Linux xikitin 2.6.35-24-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 2 01:41:57 UTC
2010 i686 GNU/Linux

Both 0.4 versions show the same behavior.

The daemon.log lines affecting this behavior are:

After this the modem dissapears and must be plugged again to reapear in
networkmanager list of connections. The connection never succeeds.
I traced down the issue to some SIM exchange issue (see above about bad
SIM exchange). If you use your SIM card in a phone, you can disable SIM
security and then the connection suceeds.
