Public bug reported:
I have a Compaq Presario C796WU with Sierra Wireless USB301 on Telstra
prepaid internet. I had originally installed 8.04, then upgraded to
9.04, and usb modem worked well. I have now done a clean install (except
/home) of xubuntu 10.04. I am unable to enable wireless networking. I
have added the mobile broadband connection via network manager, and have
added the dns servers. When I plugin the usb modem, it says connected,
but am unable to browse the net, or ping the dns servers added. No usb
connection shows up when I run sudo lshw -C network, nor are there any
extra /dev/usb* devices added when I plug it in.
I downloaded the xubuntu iso for amd64, and burnt to cd in Windows XP,
and it has seemed to install correctly.
I have searched the forums, and the internet for clues but have found
nothing that helps.
