Hello, Brian!

Recently, I wrote to this list about ZTE MF192. I got it to work with
dhclient, see my previous messages:
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager-list/2012-June/msg00003.html and https://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager-list/2012-April/msg00043.html

Please, can you try my patches, and confirm them to work, or not.
