<div>Yes I know, but with NM-GNOME and nmcli it doesn't work at all; that's where I started from.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Actually it was you who instructed me to use mmcli to analyse the issue on MM side.</div>

<pre>Hey!</pre>

<pre>thanks; the modem is plugged to the mainboard, so no simple plugging-in; instead, I did this</pre>

<pre>You should not use mmcli for anything, maybe that's the problem? If</pre>
<pre>you manually run mmcli like you did above, no other application is</pre>
<pre>going to setup the wwan network interface for you, that is totally</pre>
<pre>expected.</pre>
<pre><br></pre>
<pre>If you want to use NetworkManager (so that it's NM the one setting up</pre>
<pre>the network interface), you should create some WWAN modem settings for</pre>
<pre>NetworkManager (e.g. using System Settings in GNOME, or whatever other</pre>
<pre>desktop you use). Once the settings have been set up, you should be</pre>
<pre>able to connect/disconnect the modem using nmcli (not mmcli) and/or</pre>
<pre>using your desktop network settings control.</pre>
