Mobile Broadband does not work after upgrade to Ubuntu 15.10
Mobile Broadband which worked with Ubuntu 15.04 does not work after upgrading to Ubuntu 15.10.
The display on the Network Connection drop down list is :-
Ethernet Network (grey)
Auto Ethernet (normal) - a ADSL wired connection is also used
Disconnect (normal)
Mobile Broadband (grey)
not enabled (grey)
VPN Connections > (normal)
Enable Networking (ticked)
Enable Mobile Broadband (ticked)
Connection Information (normal)
Edit Connections... (normal)
Have edited the mobile broadband settings and also deleted it and installed it again but it still does not work.
How to get over this? Any suggestions?
Thank you
Srikumar

The 'ppp' issue is the reason that I want to see the contents of the config file.
I overlooked that the protections settings restrict even read access to that file.
So please do
sudo cat /etc/NetworkMan
(and eliminate any PIN codes or secret information from the output when pasting here).

Thank you for your reply.
re# 15 - I just know how this happened and cannot re-create it again although trying so many times.
The Mobile connection still does not work with Ubuntu 15.10 but it works, plug and play, on Ubuntu 15.04 without any problem. Just plug in the mobile dongle and it works. The settings are the same.
I do not know whether there is any problem with the network manager or the network applet (nm-applet, i think). Is it possible to delete these two programs and any other related program and re-install them again.
Thank you for all your time and effort, which is very much appreciated.
God Bless.

For an attempt to re-install the related packages, first step must be listing them. What is the output of
dpkg -l | grep -i network
Another test worth trying could be to create a new user, log in as this new user and try connecting. If it works with the new user, but not with your normal one, then most probably the cause is user-private settings. If the new user cannot connect either, then it is probably related to global settings, or an error with the software.

I think the bug report should be filed.
At first my mobile broadband connection worked fine. Then on some upgrade to a higher version of Ubuntu the prompt for entering PIN code was not showing any more. I don't remember which upgrade was that. I am upgrading this computer constantly with every new Ubuntu since 2013.
I solved the issue by entering the PIN into network settings. On upgrade to 15.10 I can't connect any more.
The following log shows that the modem is locked because there is no PIN entered:

I hope these log entries will help identifying the issue.

I have found a workaround for me. I have to establish connection in Windows and then just reboot without closing the connection and leaving the modem in active state. When I boot in Ubuntu after Windows stop I can connect. However, I would not call thus a credible workaround because it works just for me on this particular computer (dual boot) and with this particular modem.

Hello Marko
How do you re-boot without closing the connection?
Are you using Wine or other such software?
I am also using a Dual Boot - Windows & Ubuntu
When I exit from Windows the Mobile Connection cuts off automatically.

Yes the connection cuts off, but in my case it stays in such state that I can establish it from Ubuntu.
I have an application in windows to start a connection. It is a part of driver for modem. If I close that application manually and reboot into Ubuntu I cannot connect. If I only restart Windows without closing the application manually I can establish a connection in Ubuntu. I don't know why it works that way. It is really strange, but it works for me. Of course I would prefer working connection in Ubuntu as it used to work.
I am on that connection now.

The mobile Broadband connection still does not work.
The drop down menu for the network connection indicates that the Mobile Broadband connection is connected but it will not connect to the Internet.
The Connection Information menu also indicates that it is connected.
The Edit connection menu gives the following error report:-
Error initializing editor

Hi Marco
Found a way round this problem.
Deleted all network connections. (You may want to copy down any special network settings before you do so.)
Plugged in the Mobile Dongle. It sets itself up as "Auto Ethernet" and NOT as "Mobile Broadband".
And it now works flawlessly.
I cannot explain how this happens but it just works and that's fine by me.
It you already have a wired connection such as an ADSL modem, the ports may clash.
Thank you all for your great efforts at helping me out: it is well appreciated.
God Bless.

Just mark it as solved. Only you can do this as you are the question owner.
Glad you got the gold

I'm still facing this issue. @srikumar did you find any final/stable workaround for this? What did you do to mark the dongle as "Auto Ethernet" instead of "Mobile Broadband"?
