dmesg output
Digging through back-ups, I noticed that ModemManager in Fedora 14 was the exact same version, so the problem must lie elsewhere. Any suggestions as to witch component I should put the blame on? Maybe NetworkManager? I have to say that between this and bug #758543, my AAO's networking capabilities have been severely crippled... Created attachment 562429 [details]
newest /var/log/messages
I got my hands on a Huawei K3806 3G modem (which was sold to a client as a ZTE K3806) and that worked out of the box. As there have been a few usb_modeswitch and NetworkManager updates since I last checked, I decided to have another go at this. I am attaching my /var/log/messages. In the first half, my Alcatel X200 is connected, gets switched, but NetworkManager doesn't show any mobile broadband options. In the second half, the Huawei modem is connected, switched, NetworkManager picks it up and presents me with the option to use a connection I had created earlier (Vodafone contract).
Current package versions:
kernel-3.2.6-3.fc16.i686
ModemManager-0.4.998-1.git20110706.fc16.i686
NetworkManager-0.9.2-1.fc16.i686
usb_modeswitch-1.2.2-2.fc16.i686
usb_modeswitch-data-20111023-1.fc16.noarch
This one is kinda odd. Any chance you can follow the debugging steps under "Debugging NetworkManager 0.8 and 0.9 3G connections" on this page and grab the --debug log from MM when the Alcatel X200 is used? https://live.gnome.org/NetworkManager/Debugging I am now on F17 (upgrade performed using preupgrade) and the problem persists. I am attaching ModemManager and NetworkManager logs. Created attachment 599519 [details]

This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '16'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 16's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 16 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 16 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-02-12. Fedora 16 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
