Title:
NetworkManager forgets mobile broadband connection settings on reboot,
starts "New Connection" wizard -- Huawei E172
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Binary package hint: network-manager
I use a Huawei E172 3G USB dongle for my internet connection (on
Vodafone).
What happens:
Network Manager (or perhaps network-manager-applet - I don't know which
package is responsible) keeps forgetting my 3G broadband connection settings.
When I load my Desktop, I get the the "New Connection" wizard (screenshot
attached).
This happens nearly every day, or after approximately one in three reboots -
although there is no pattern to this and it appears completely random. This
happens when no changes have been made to my system - no recently installed
updates etc.
Each time, I have to go through the wizard again and re-enter all my settings.
What should happen:
Network Manager/network-manager-applet should remember my 3G broadband
settings. I should not have to go through the wizard and re-enter
them nearly every day.
