Hi,

Yes that makes more sense.  That had crossed my mind previously, but I
didn't look into it further.

Presumably it'd be possible to create a separate service which looks for
a particular modem failing, and takes the necessary action to reset and
trigger a reprobe etc.?  Would there be any issue with this running at
the same time as nm for instance?

Thanks,

Tim.
