When I connect my 3G USB Modem to my laptop with 12.04, nothing shows up in Network-Manager. This modem is working in 11.10 and the modem is shown in Network-Manager but not in 12.04 !!
Here are the outputs of lsusb
and usb-devices
on two machines , one with 11.10 and the other with 12.04 :
Ubuntu-11.10 :
$ lsusb
Bus 002 Device 009: ID 1c9e:6061
$ usb-devices
T: Bus=02 Lev=02 Prnt=02 Port=03 Cnt=01 Dev#= 9 Spd=12 MxCh= 0
D: Ver= 1.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS=64 #Cfgs= 1
P: Vendor=1c9e ProdID=6061 Rev=00.00
S: Manufacturer=3G USB Modem ??
S: SerialNumber=000000000002
C: #Ifs= 4 Cfg#= 1 Atr=a0 MxPwr=500mA
I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 3 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=ff Prot=ff Driver=option

I: If#= 3 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=08(stor.) Sub=06 Prot=50 Driver=usb-storage
Ubuntu-12.04 :
$ lsusb
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 1c9e:6061 OMEGA TECHNOLOGY WL-72B 3.5G MODEM
$ usb-devices
T: Bus=02 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=01 Cnt=01 Dev#= 3 Spd=12 MxCh= 0
D: Ver= 1.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS=64 #Cfgs= 1
P: Vendor=1c9e ProdID=6061 Rev=00.00
S: Manufacturer=Qualcomm, Incorporated
S: Product=USB MMC Storage
S: SerialNumber=000000000002
C: #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=c0 MxPwr=100mA
I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=08(stor.) Sub=06 Prot=50 Driver=(none)
As the output of the above commands show, the device is detected as a modem in 11.10 but in 12.04 it is detected as a USB storage (the device is both a 3G Modem and a SD-card USB adapter).
Any help ?!
