Rick,

latest updates are that after adding lines to usb_modeswitch.conf file, 
dongle is recognized, and I can create a connection, but....such a 
conncetion doesn't show up in available connections in the applet (I 
guess that it should be below the wireless connection...) therefore I 
can start it only if I use the automatic connection option...
No way of selecting available to all users connection
tnx for help
