Just followed the steps given by Anders (comment 158) and now I can see the new Mobile Broadband connection in the NetworkManager applet. But, when I try to use it, 3G won't work, the connection only sets up in GSM mode (not even GPRS mode). Of course, I can use that connection with 3G or GPRS when using the external usb dongle.

Any idea why this would happen?

When I configure the mobile broadband connection to force using only 3G, syslog says:
