Description

Hi,
I've just updated a virtual appliance to the new 2.3.2_1 version, and now, i can't add ppp connection (3G backup )
I've got a service name mandatory field but it doesn't appear (as in PPPoE mode) and is not mandatory...

Can you help me to find a solution?

Thanks,
JV

Having the same problem. cannot add any ppp connection because it's saying "The service name contains invalid characters"

Problem is in /usr/local/share/mobile-broadband-provider-info/serviceproviders.xml
Line 3150 contains (),-

<name>T-Mobile(Telekom)</name>

If I change that to esp "TMobileTelekom" I can add a device w/o any problem.

Sorry for third answer, just found the service name check

/usr/local/www/interfaces_ppps_edit.php
Line 276

if ($_POST['provider'] && !is_domain($_POST['provider'])) {

is_domain() is why () is failing in the service-name

Yeah, the input validation makes zero sense, there's no user input there in the first place.
