Description nils 2011-10-02 20:05:06 UTC
Version:           unspecified
OS:                Linux

after selecting the cell network to connect to, the network manager stops at the "Waiting for authorization" stage. This happens every time, even though I give it the PIN (twice, once before it asks if its OK to unlock the device, once when I try to connect to the network).

WLAN works fine and connects automatically.

Heres the syslog:

Comment 2 Lamarque V. Souza 2011-10-03 01:13:30 UTC
Git commit 2b5130205d951d5758049f114cfccc6f05881cdc by Lamarque V. Souza.
Committed on 03/10/2011 at 03:09.
Pushed by lvsouza into branch 'nm09'.

Set default GSM's "password" flag to AgentOwned to prevent the password
from not being saved at all and, consequently, the secrets dialog appearing
at each connection attempt.

Comment 3 Lamarque V. Souza 2011-10-03 01:14:08 UTC
The line "unlock no longer required" in your log indicates that the PIN was successfully used to unlock your modem. The second time the dialog appear is not because of PIN but because of the "Password" field, which was not saved when the connection was created.
Comment 4 nils 2011-10-03 08:33:09 UTC
Not sure if this is fixed.

I can now connect to the network if I give it a password for the network, but my network doesnt need a password, and if I dont give one, it stays at the "Waiting for authorization" stage.

actually, not sure if your commit is in this package or not... there was an update this morning from ubuntu4 to ubuntu5, my previous comment applies to the update to ubuntu5:

Comment 6 Lamarque V. Souza 2011-10-03 09:27:24 UTC
If your operator acts like mine then it indeed requires a password, but the password is very easy and well known. The fact the password is too easy does not mean it is still not necessary :-).

The same "database" used to feed the mobile connection wizard also contains the password, so it should have been saved like any other information when you created the connection. My patch only works for newly created connections, you will need to recreate your connection or do what you did: enter the password in the edit dialog.

The Ubuntu's update is too old, the version number 0.9~svngit.nm09.20110610.0c83d8-0ubuntu5 indicates the package is using a snapshot from June 10, which is almost four months old.
