Dude,
here is a crude BASH script that I use for taking connections up and
down from
the command line. I use it to experiment with dbus-send
a 

#!/bin/bash
# overoGsmConnCtrl.bash
args=("$@")
echo Args recieved = $#
export DOWNARGS=2
export UPARGS=4
export MYCOMMAND=""

echo Available devices:-
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"
/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager
"org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.GetDevices"

echo Available connections:-
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"
/org/freedesktop/NetworkManagerSettings
"org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerSettings.ListConnections"

#dbus-send --system --print-reply
--dest="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"
/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/15
org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.Get
string:"org.freedesktop.NetworkManager" string:"State"

if [ $# -eq $UPARGS ]
then
	if [ $1 == "up" ]
	then
		echo "Lets try connecting"
		
		if [ $2 -eq 1 ]
		then
		
	  	export MYCOMMAND="dbus-send \
