Wicd and Network Manager

Just a quick post on my “Ubuntu Adventure”.

Yesterday i tried to connect my ZTE M622 modem but somehow it did not work. I talked to some colleagues and according to them it should work just by plugging in and using Network Manager.

My NM was removed when i installed wicd – i assume there is some kind o compatibility issue between them. However since wicd did not see my ZTE modem AND agn does not install properly, my only option for a wired connection was to go back to NM. That did not work and now i have no network whatsoever.

As a quick reminder, this is not ubuntu or linux fault – it is just a problem that i have because i need agn to have wired network and ATT does not provide the rpms anymore (and never provided deb). Most people should be fine in their home network.
