Public bug reported: I found this in my kernel log when inserting Nokia CS-17 mobile broadband USB modem (Type: RD-13, Model: CS-17):

Sense: No additional sense information ...and no surprise it didn't work. If I recall correctly, on 11.04 it almost worked, meaning that the led on the device was blinking and it tried to connect, but the connection was always dropped for some reason.
