@Marius - I was able to remove the SIM card from out of the back of the Dell laptop, and put the card in another AT&T USB wifi device. Then I installed it to my Windows7 machine using AT&T Connection Mananger v7.2 The card worked fine! I was on the AT&T network in no time at all. I was even able to use the GPS (Location) functions with the card.
Currently I am running UBUNTU 12.04-LTS, and using whatever modemmanager comes with the original CD *.iso I had to format the harddrive and downgrade from 13.04 because I want depserately to roll this out to about +/-40 project managers' laptops. So I need to get this working on the "stable" version of Ubuntu. @Aleksander - I noticed that, too. However ...If you look at my post #19, you'll see that I actually DID make a successful connection to AT&T using the modified wvdial.conf script. Is there any way to make the modemmanager confing script use those AT commands that the wvdial.conf script is using? Maybe it can get me a successful registration state if it were sending the proper commands. ....Just thinking out loud here :-/ Oh - and Marius, I will go now and attempt to install the latest version of mm via PPA? Don't know what that means yet, or even how to do the install, but I am eternally grateful for all the learning , and knowledge I'm getting here!! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1114575 Title: Network Manager cannot connect using embedded Dell 5530 Mobile Broadband device To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/modemmanager/+bug/1114575/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
