        The process of requesting to connect or disconnect the modem is now split into
        two operations: creating a bearer with
        
          CreateBearer()
        
        in the
        
          org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.Modem
        
        interface and getting the bearer connected with
        
          Connect()
        
        in the
        
          org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.Bearer
        
        interface. These two steps are equivalent to the old Connect()org.freedesktop.ModemManager.Modem
        interface.
      
        The old Disconnect()org.freedesktop.ModemManager.Modem
        interface is therefore also applied in a per-bearer basis through the new
        
          Disconnect()
        
        in the
        
          org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.Bearer
        
        interface.
      
This logic of splitting the connection logic allows ModemManager to create multiple bearers that may be connected to e.g. different access points (if the modem allows it).
