I have tried to configure mobile bb by adding new connection and entered all settings like APN correctly but still i am unable to connect. Please help
What is there in the log?
su
tail -20f /var/log/messages
Also, did you upgrade the KDE (and the knetworkmanager to the latest version)?
i havent upgraded anything yet but this is KDE version. I will check terminal output
You may have to update the system because the knetworkmanager had a couple of bugs.
I cant upgrade bcoz i can use internet only through GPRS and so trying to get it worked.
What do you get in the log?

Which brand and model is your GPRS modem?
The log shows that you have Broadcom wireless adapter that requires firmware to be installed. Do you plan to use wireless connection?
I am using Nokia 5800 as a GPRS modem and i wont use wireless internet in suse.
Are you trying to connect via bluetooth to the phone and then, to the service provider? In that case, you have to make sure that your bluetooth is working first with rfcomm enabled.
