I have just upgraded the firmware in my E220. It was already at 11.110.05.00.00 (the one from Vodafone) so I took it to 11.117.09.04.00.
Under 10.04.1 the behaviour is now decidedly odd. When I plug it in lights flash and the CD part of it shows up. There is no sign of the modem side, though, and network manager does not give any mobile broadband connection options. If I then plug in a spare ZTE MF627 dongle, mobile broadband appears as an option, and I can connect happily through the E220. After a while network manager offers connections through either device (not at first, though, when only the E220 is used), then it offers a choice. As soon as mobile broadband becomes an option I can remove the ZTE MF627 without causing problems, but it needs to be reinserted if the E220 is disconnected for any reason. That's all on a fresh 10.04.1 install. usb_modeswitch is not installed, as I understand it should no longer be necessary. -- Huawei E220 modem unable to connect under Karmic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/449394 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
