I used an Option UMTS card (0af0:5000) - badged as a Vodafone UK "Mobile Connect 3G". It worked with the default *99# dial string, although I've previously saved the Vodafone APN into slot 1 on the card.

I've since noticed an intermittent issue where the connection configuration isn't retrieved/set correctly, shows itself as invalid bit/parity settings in the NM output. Given some persistence it generally works in the end ;)

Jon.
