Detailed Description
An icon will be added to the frame when a modem is connected, and the user will be able to connect and disconnect from there. Also, a section will be added to the control panel that will allow entering the details needed by the connection.
Benefit to Sugar
Users will be able to access internet in more situations. This has been requested from Uruguay and Paraguay.
Scope
We'll need to add an extension for the device icon and another extension for the control panel. Also will need to modify the SettingsManager so it provides the 3G settings that NetworkManager needs.
UI Design
How To Test
- Test Case 1 - Sim doesn't requires Pin/Puk configuration:
- Go to control panel, Modem Configuration
- Set username, password, number, and apn
- Save changes and restart
- Connect the device and wait until the device icon appears
- Click on connect item
- Check that connection information is ok.

- Test Case 2 - Sim requires Pin/Puk configuration
- Go to control panel, Modem Configuration
- Set username, password, number, apn and a wrong Pin/Puk configuration
- Save changes and restart
- Connect the device and wait until the device icon appears
