Bug Description

Karmic Koala 9.10 x64 Beta

The network manager detects my 3G cdma modem (huawei) in 'Mobile Broadband' section and also prompts for the new connection wizard on clicking.

After editing the configuration (Mobile Broadband) and adding username and password, clicking on 'Apply' closes the window.
I am unable to connect. After I check the configuration, the username and password section are empty!

Faced this in Live CD as well as after installation.
