Title:
Disable mobile broadband has no effect on most modems
Status in Network Manager GNOME Applet:
Unknown
Status in “modemmanager” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Hello to all of you.
I am using a complete up to date Lucid on my Thinkpad T500 with integrated
mobile broadband modem. The modem itself can be used without any problems.
The only thing is, that the "Disable mobile broadband" switch in the right
click menu of network-manager-applet (on gnome) takes absolutely no effect.
I can connect with the modem when mobile broadband should be disabled, and
furthermore, when i disable via the switch, the device is not powered down.
This is not very nice on a laptop where energy is a rare resource.
I attached the corresponding lsusb -vvv part
This is what syslog shows when first clicking on enable mobile
broadband:
Apr 6 11:17:15 localhost modem-manager: (ttyACM0) opening serial device...
Apr 6 11:17:15 localhost modem-manager: Modem
/org/freedesktop/ModemManager/Modems/0: state changed (disabled -> enabling)
Apr 6 11:17:15 localhost modem-manager: Got failure code 100: Unknown error
Apr 6 11:17:15 localhost modem-manager: Invalid error code
Apr 6 11:17:15 localhost modem-manager: Got failure code 100: Unknown error
Apr 6 11:17:15 localhost modem-manager: Modem
/org/freedesktop/ModemManager/Modems/0: state changed (enabling -> enabled)
This powers up the device.
And then when clicking on disable, the following occurs:
Apr 6 11:17:26 localhost modem-manager: Modem
/org/freedesktop/ModemManager/Modems/0: state changed (enabled -> disabling)
Apr 6 11:17:26 localhost modem-manager: (ttyACM0) closing serial device...
Apr 6 11:17:26 localhost modem-manager: Modem
/org/freedesktop/ModemManager/Modems/0: state changed (disabling -> disabled)
But the device isn't powered down.
I can choose to connect both when the device is up and when the device isn't
running yet (choosing then activates the device)
