I don't have any problems connecting with mofi.
Sure after, connecting I do "wmiconfig -i eth0 --power maxperf" and then keep a ping
running just to know if the connection is alive, but mofi establishes the wifi
connection and then it works.

With connman+mokonnect I have had ZERO success, so if it works for someone, either
that person has made some undocumented adjustment he can't remember or the current
versions don't work and he's not running them.
