Oh, I'm totally unable to get my Huawei E160 working.  Could you please
provide those config files you have edited?  Maybe that could help me.

Hm, I use KNetworkManager, and in the Broadband Connection tab, there
are fields for the PIN, PUK, APN, etc.  At least the PIN/PUK are saved
in the KDE keychain (kwallet).  I guess it's the same when using
nm-applet, where those credentials should be stored in the GNOME
keyring.

Bye,
