That's what I had before...
My guess is that you had disabled mobile data with a Plasma Mobile from between December 2021 and March 2022 (keep in mind that preinstalled images on newly shipped phones can be several months out of date), where the mobile data toggle would set the wwan flag in NetworkManager to disabled, disabling the entire modem. Then upgrading to a fixed Plasma Mobile left you with the flag still set incorrectly in NetworkManager, without a UI toggle to fix it. So try my nmcli command.
There may be other ways to end up in this state though. What matters is how to get out of it.
