Afternoon folks,
I know that Fedora 18 is kinda obsolete but for a number of reasons, I have to stick to it for the time being. However, I am quite sure that this problem/behavior isn't restricted to F18. But since I am using that, ought to say that.
So, here is the problem.
I have a ZTE K3800 dongle which I use for wireless/3G connection, provided by Vodafone. When I plugin the device, it prompts to connect and works. Problem is, as soon as I connect, systemd sends a signal 15 to network-manager and the applet disappears from system tray. Therefore, if I try to configure VPN, I find no option. Note that, I am only trying to configure from the nm-applet.
lsusb shows me this
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 19d2:0117 ZTE WCDMA Technologies MSM
Device Descriptor:
bLength 18
bDescriptorType 1
bcdUSB 2.00
bDeviceClass 0 (Defined at Interface level)
bDeviceSubClass 0
bDeviceProtocol 0
bMaxPacketSize0 64
idVendor 0x19d2 ZTE WCDMA Technologies MSM
idProduct 0x0117
bcdDevice 0.00
iManufacturer 3 ZTE,Incorporated
iProduct 2 ZTE WCDMA Technologies MSM
iSerial 4 MF6560ZTED010000
Now, when I insert the device, I get this.

I checked in /lib/udev/rules.d/ to see whether I can find anything but not much success.
BTW, this article gives some clues but I don't have the configPack.tar.gz file to clone.
Any help will be appreciated. Also, if any other information is required, do shout and I will provide.
Thanks,
Soham
