and it simply matches port 2 and port 2 gets the protocol attribute?

So my interpretion is that it goes through that cascade for every port.
The data port gets the modem protocol information and that is the
trigger to use this port by the network-manager?

Alexander: where can I post this bug and will they cross check, as other
modems occur as well in this passage, that the other products that work
differently are not affected by this patch? (I will stress this anyway)?
