Description of problem:
Turning on 3G modem conection
SELinux is preventing ModemManager from read, write access on the chr_file cdc-wdm2.

*****  Plugin device (91.4 confidence) suggests   ****************************

If you want to allow ModemManager to have read write access on the cdc-wdm2 chr_file
Then you need to change the label on cdc-wdm2 to a type of a similar device.
Do
# semanage fcontext -a -t SIMILAR_TYPE 'cdc-wdm2'
# restorecon -v 'cdc-wdm2'

*****  Plugin catchall (9.59 confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that ModemManager should be allowed read write access on the cdc-wdm2 chr_file by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# ausearch -c 'ModemManager' --raw | audit2allow -M my-ModemManager
# semodule -X 300 -i my-ModemManager.pp
