I have a problem with my networkmanager

i emerged the packages with the falowing use flags:

mmx sse sse2 X kde gtk qt lame mad x264 ffmpeg flac xvid alsa -gnome networkmanager modemmanager udev dbus hal avahi bluetooth connection-sharing doc ppp resolvconf

i have an ericsson HP lc2010 mobile broadband device in my netbook built in but network manager can't handle it but i have the wwan0 device

ifconfig:

wwan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 02:80:37:ec:02:00
BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B)


dmesg:

By what I can see in the screenshot ModemManager did not detect your modem. Which ModemManager version do you use? What does the command below return?

dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.ModemManager /org/freedesktop/ModemManager org.freedesktop.ModemManager.EnumerateDevices

NetworkManager: 0.9.4.0-r2
networkmanagement: 0.9.0.2
modemmanager: 0.5.2.0

i tried the stable versions but the problem is the same...

the return of the command:

method return sender=:1.4 -> dest=:1.34 reply_serial=2

ModemManager did not recognised your modem indeed. Usually 3G modems are configure in USB sticks mode by default requiring a program to switch the mode to 3G modem. usb-modeswitch is a program that usually works in that situation, you should try it.

OK

It was my fault... the cdc_ether kernel module is not enough... i installed all the modem stuffz in the kernel and it works fine...

Other problem is i have to turn off and turn on the wireless cards with the wireless button on the keyboard and then i can use it...
