UPDATE: I stand corrected. This E1690 modem is not "mode-switched" the FIRST time connected to the machine. Watching lsusb, the device just stays at its original ID of 12d1:1446 and never switches to 12d1:1001.
But if I unplug it and replug it, the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, times it is always correctly switched to 12d1:1001 and then "Mobile Broadband" is displayed in the Network Manager. It is only this "first time" it sits a 12d1:1446 and is not switched. Maybe this is the same situation as the original poster, ivano, was seeing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1244775 Title: huawei E1962 dongle to be plugged twice To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-modeswitch/+bug/1244775/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
