Note: This article will help you to "Dial" your USB CDMA modem with Network Manager in Ubuntu, Assuming it's already working fine with wvdial. If you are modem is not detected or working by wvdial, then it's problem with Modem Detection in Ubuntu, if this is the case, then this solution is not for you.
