I wanted a very quick solution. Thinking of finding a configuration file or something to edit I came across this command:
nmcli nm wwan on This does the same as checking the "Enable mobile broadband" in nm- applet and doesn't solve the bug. But when run at system startup the mobile broadband connection will be established. If the device is removed and reinserted the "Enable mobile broadband" option is unchecked again. So this doesn't solve the bug but makes life a bit easier for me and maybe for some others until this is fixed so I thought I'll share it here. Has anybody reported this to gnome's bugzilla? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/874900 Title: "Enable mobile broadband" option gets unchecked To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/874900/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
