My BSNL CDMA 1x is detected in Ubuntu 10.10. When I am trying to connect with it (after required settings - user ID & password), after about a minute NetworkManager displays a message "Network disconnected - You are offline". What may be the reason? Now I am working with the same device in Windows. I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 with Windows. Please help me.

Please run this:

sudo service network-manager stop
sudo NM_PPP_DEBUG=1 /usr/sbin/NetworkManager --log-level=debug --no-daemon > ~/nm.out
sudo chown $(id -un) ~/nm.out

and then paste the contents of ~/nm.out here.

    Change /root to ~.

  • And it turns out the first line should be network-manager rather than NetworkManager on Ubuntu. I have corrected by answer.

  • I got connection with a similar device of Reliance. Here I am pasting the result of ~/nm.out but it will not fit here so i am pasting some portions about my BSNL modem. NetworkManager[1949]: <warn> CDMA connection failed: (4) Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken. NetworkManager[1949]: <info> (ttyUSB0): device state change: 4 -> 9 (reason 0) NetworkManager[1949]: <info> Marking connection 'BSNL connection' invalid.

Just for info, though it may help, my mobile broadband needs a phone number and an APN but no user name or password is required

I have "resolved" the problem (ubuntu 11.04) removing network-manager-openvpn-gnome

BTW I need openvpn but still I've not found a solution.

[update] 11.04 has been fixed, the problem arises again in 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot :-(
