Description of problem: Since my upggrade to Fedora 21 Modem Manager seems to be broken. It can't properly setup my USB modem anymore, so I can't connect to network. Modem itself is working on Windows OS, with the same SIM card. I though this is some temporary issue, but seems, that it's not even reported. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ModemManager-1.4.0-1.fc21.x86_64 How reproducible: Always same behavior Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert USB modem 2. enter PIN 3. try to connect using NetworkManager. Actual results: Jan 15 13:28:18 localhost ModemManager[732]: <warn> couldn't load Supported Modes: 'Couldn't retrieve supported modes' Jan 15 13:28:18 localhost ModemManager[732]: <warn> couldn't load Supported IP families: 'SIM not inserted' Jan 15 13:28:18 localhost ModemManager[732]: <info> Modem: state changed (unknown -> locked) Jan 15 13:28:18 localhost ModemManager[732]: <warn> couldn't load SIM identifier: 'Unknown error' Jan 15 13:28:18 localhost ModemManager[732]: <warn> couldn't load IMSI: 'SIM not inserted' Jan 15 13:28:18 localhost ModemManager[732]: <warn> couldn't load Operator identifier: 'Unknown error' Jan 15 13:28:18 localhost ModemManager[732]: <warn> couldn't load Operator name: 'Unknown error' Jan 15 13:28:18 localhost ModemManager[732]: <warn> couldn't load list of Own Numbers: 'SIM not inserted' Expected results: Modem should connect to 3G nw Additional info:

I have similar issues. My Huawei K3765 no longer works with F21. I am never prompted for a PIN, Mobile Broadband in NetworkManager is always off, stored connections cannot be edited, i.e. this seems utterly broken. This may be a different problem. After plugging the device in usb_modeswitch is doing its job: Bus 001 Device 007: ID 12d1:1465 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. K3765 HSPA Pressing connect in the NetworkManager GUI the connection can be configured, but there is no query for the SIM PIN. Also the connection created this way cannot be edited in the GUI and does not show up in the GUI for a while.

btw. after unlocking the sim/modem via mmcli and a subsequent reboot (keeping the usb modem plugged in) NetworkManager works as expected ;) In other words, I can connect via NetworkManager, edit saved connections, etc.
I have the same problem with my Huawei E220 after upgrade from F20 to F21. In Windows it still works. The workaround from domgross worked for me (thanks for that!), but only after I also edited /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state as described here[1]: [main] NetworkingEnabled=true WirelessEnabled=true WWANEnabled=false WimaxEnabled=true I set WWANEnabled=true and was able to connect again. I don't know if it worked in F20 with this setting or if it was disabled during the upgrade. If I remove the modem, I have to unlock it again with mmcli before I can use it again.

Same here. Sierra Wireless 340U (AT&T Beam, pretty popular) works great in Fedora 20. Doesn't work in Fedora 21.

If I blacklist qmi_wwan and use ppp only, the connection works more or less fine (with packet loss). But with F20 it worked flawlessly. Like a few days ago. And one more thing. When I click the nm-applet to connect to the mobile broadbang connection of my ISP, the service says "not registered" (whereas when using ppp it says "ISP LTE") and circles the connection with grey only dots when trying to connect. Like it's missing a step. I've even disabled PIN verification. No change. Relevant software (probably incomplete list) below: NetworkManager-0.9.10.1-3.20150219git.fc21.x86_64 NetworkManager-wifi-0.9.10.1-3.20150219git.fc21.x86_64 NetworkManager-glib-0.9.10.1-3.20150219git.fc21.x86_64 NetworkManager-wwan-0.9.10.1-3.20150219git.fc21.x86_64 NetworkManager-config-connectivity-fedora-0.9.10.1-3.20150219git.fc21.x86_64 ModemManager-1.4.0-1.fc21.x86_64 ModemManager-glib-1.4.0-1.fc21.x86_64 libqmi-utils-1.12.4-1.fc22.x86_64 libqmi-1.12.4-1.fc22.x86_64 kernel/qmi_wwan - 3.18.7-200.fc21.x86_64 (tried reverting to F20 3.15.4 kernel, still nothing, must be user-space tools). Anything else to help diagnose the problem? Thanks Smirk
For those of you with a SIM PIN, please try the latest NetworkManager update as that has a known fix to handle an issue with PINs. Smirk: what do you get for these commands? sudo qmicli -p -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --dms-get-operating-mode sudo qmicli -p -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --nas-get-serving-system sudo qmicli -p -d /dev/cdc-wdm0 --nas-get-home-network
Hi, thank you for your interest in this. It messed up my work a bit as I mostly rely on WWAN nowadays. I enabled an internal modem to test it also (also not working), so the ZTE I have trouble with is under cdc-wdm2 now. The results (location xed-out): sudo qmicli -p -d /dev/cdc-wdm2 --dms-get-operating-mode [/dev/cdc-wdm2] Operating mode retrieved: Mode: 'online' HW restricted: 'no' sudo qmicli -p -d /dev/cdc-wdm2 --nas-get-serving-system [/dev/cdc-wdm2] Successfully got serving system: Registration state: 'registered' CS: 'attached' PS: 'attached' Selected network: '3gpp' Radio interfaces: '1' [0]: 'lte' Roaming status: 'off' Data service capabilities: '1' [0]: 'lte' Current PLMN: MCC: '260' MNC: '1' Description: 'ISP' Roaming indicators: '1' [0]: 'off' (lte) 3GPP time zone offset: 'xx' minutes 3GPP daylight saving time adjustment: '0' hours 3GPP location area code: 'xxxxx' 3GPP cell ID: 'xxxxxxx' Detailed status: Status: 'available' Capability: 'cs-ps' HDR Status: 'none' HDR Hybrid: 'no' Forbidden: 'no' LTE tracking area code: 'xxxxx' Full operator code info: MCC: '260' MNC: '1' MNC with PCS digit: 'no' sudo qmicli -p -d /dev/cdc-wdm2 --nas-get-home-network [/dev/cdc-wdm2] Successfully got home network: Home network: MCC: '260' MNC: '1' Description: 'ISP' Regards Smirk
(In reply to Dan Williams from comment #7) > For those of you with a SIM PIN, please try the latest NetworkManager update > as that has a known fix to handle an issue with PINs. Are you referring to NetworkManager-0.9.10.1-3.20150219git.fc21.x86_64? That did not help, also the workaround mentioned above no longer works. I disabled the sim-pin to get a working. This is not really my preferred solution but sure beats not having no usable 3G connection.
Hi, I've just updated ModemManager from the updates-testing repository and it's... different now. At first when I rebooted to make sure everything is cleanly started, I saw there was no ModemManager service present. Trying to run in manually resulted in a message: /usr/sbin/ModemManager: symbol lookup error: /usr/sbin/ModemManager: undefined symbol: mbim_message_response_get_result I though it might be a problem of a not-so-recent version of libmbim and apparently was right. The symbol was introduced in libmbim version 1.12. I manually updated libmbim and libmbim-utils to a version 1.12.0-1.fc21 available here: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=617228 and so the ModemManager service was started successfully. On the other hand something weird started to happen. I started getting flooded by network re-registration messages: Mar 6 09:08:53 MYCOMPUTERNAME ModemManager[2720]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/1: 3GPP Registration state changed (home -> searching) Mar 6 09:08:53 MYCOMPUTERNAME ModemManager[2720]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/1: 3GPP Registration state changed (searching -> idle) Mar 6 09:08:53 MYCOMPUTERNAME ModemManager[2720]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/1: 3GPP Registration state changed (idle -> registering) Mar 6 09:08:53 MYCOMPUTERNAME ModemManager[2720]: <info> Modem /org/freedesktop/ModemManager1/Modem/1: 3GPP Registration state changed (registering -> home) So one problem is partly resolved. Stands to reason that once the Fedora team releases an official libmbim package, everything is going to work smoothly and it's just a problem of an unsupported libmbim 1.12 version I forced into my system.
Huge packet loss BTW, when re-registering to the network.
Hi, Alright, seems that the new versions available at updates-testing, namely: libmbim-1.12.0-1.fc21.x86_64 libqmi-1.12.4-2.fc21.x86_64 ModemManager-1.4.4-2.fc21.x86_64 libqmi-utils-1.12.4-2.fc21.x86_64 ModemManager-glib-1.4.4-2.fc21.x86_64 libmbim-utils-1.12.0-1.fc21.x86_64 NetworkManager-wwan-0.9.10.2-1.fc21.x86_64 solved the problem for me. I can now plug my modem, see it correctly recognized in the logs, get it registered on the network and establish a stable connection. No packet loss. Thank you, this really is great that you could find and correct the problem on such short notice.
Mind you, I had no trouble plugging the modem before as you could understand from the above post ;-)
Just did an update from fedora 20 to fedora 22 and mobile data is no longer working: $ nmcli radio WIFI-HW WIFI WWAN-HW WWAN enabled enabled enabled enabled $ nmcli connection up id Netzclub\ Internet Error: Connection activation failed: Connection 'Netzclub Internet' is not available on the device ttyUSB2 at this time. after $ mmcli -m 1 --simple-connect="pin=1234,apn=pinternet.interkom.de" I get $ nmcli connection up id Netzclub\ Internet Error: Connection activation failed: Active connection removed before it was initialized
