Created an attachment (id=373442) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=373442) [details] NM Display of connections
Looks like things have changed only slightly in 11.3 - the device is now named usb0 instead of eth0. It still does not show up as a Mobile Broadband connection.
From the screenshot, I can see the new mobile(GSM) connection.
