That connect string does indeed look wrong to me. ModemManager found in 
the AT+CGDCONT? reply that the PDP context with CID=2 matches the APN 
you passed to use, so it appends ***2# to the number to be called. 
Question is, why do you have ***1# specified in the Mobile Broadband 
Number? Try using "*99#" as number in the settings and let ModemManager 
append the CID when it finds the context.

Anyway, we should possibly fix ModemManager to not add the extra chunk 
with the CID if there is already one available.
