But when I run wvdialconf it can't find the modem:
Editing `/etc/wvdial.conf'.
Scanning your serial ports for a modem.
Sorry, no modem was detected! Is it in use by another program?
Did you configure it properly with setserial?
Please read the FAQ at [url]http://alumnit.ca/wiki/?WvDial[/url]
As a result I'm stuck with Ubuntu for the time being. ;( Any help would be very appreciated.
Edit: running sakis3g after doing the above I was able to connect but I'd still love to know how to to make it work manually with wvdial.

Hi
Thanks for the advice above. Initially cleaned off original app
I removed the software application from Mac HD/Applications/Orange Mobile Partner
The kernel extension located at Mac HD/System/Library/Extensions/HuaweiDataCardDriver.kext
The modem script located at Mac HD/Library/Modem Scripts/HUAWEI Mobile Connect – 3G Modem
Then dragged the Orange MobilePartner file to the HD, selected 'Show Package Contents' and followed the advice above opening the .mpkg.
Was about to try and return the dongle, but now after several tests, am sure it works

Orange Huawei E160E Mobile Broadband Dongle - NOT WORKING NOW!

Well as you can see from the title - i've just upgraded to Snow Leopard over the weekend - and love the 16GB of harddrive space I got back, however I came you use my Orange Huawei E160E Mobile Broadband USB Modem 'Dongle' and it doesn't work.
25 mins on the phone to Orange Tech Support, and they tell me 'sorry we can't do anymore' & 'thats what you get for being on the cutting edge of technology'!!!
Apple Care told me to install Rosetta - and still NO good!
Any ideas?

Broadband did not work for days

my broadband did not work for days. I spent two lengthy periods of time on the phone to sky, once fo 1.5 hrs and the other time for 1 hour. Both phone calls achieved nothing. Eventually the internet started working again. The sky service status online advised that my area had no problems. The service from sky has been incredibly rubbish and has made me very angry. In order to get myself online i had to pay BT Wifi £8 for a day pass. Sky have been very generous and have compensated me 62 pence for the time I have been without the internet. My question to sky is..... will youplease refund me the £8 I have spent and give me some sort of compensation for the dismal service provided. I have tried to call calling you this morning but you phone is engaged, I tired emailin gyou but you have no email, I tried the live chat, but it is busy. The forum is the only place I can go.

Sky don't post here and won't respond to you here. The forum is customer to customer support only.
Official complaints process as below:
http://help.sky.com/articles/how-to-make-a-complaint
Sky are under no obligation to compensate you for the loss of service and the 62p is, I assume, the cost of your package for the days it was not working.

If you haven't already, go to your Applications folder>System Preferences>"Sound">click on the center tab labelled "Output">highlight your external Bose Speakers in the list by clicking on it>turn up the Volume slider at the bottom of the window. Hopefully that solves your problem.
Hope this helps

T mobile broadband stick not working after lion instal

T mobile broadband USB stick not working after lion install

No s#!t batman.The point is a mac laptop is ment to be mobile and for it to be mobile you need a mobile broadband stick so when a new op system lion is released don't you think it would be one of the first items to be checked for compatability.with snow leopard the same problem took months before I could use a broadband stick,there is no lion connection manager software available right now until someone decides to wright it, so does anyone have a usefull fix i can use ?

Broadband is not working

I need some help. My computer is saying that the sim card and the device for my broadband is not found. I haven't deleted anything and was working just fine when I shutdown my computer yesterday. I went to system restore and restored my system, but that did not work. What do I do?

Your computer shouldn't have to detect a SIM card for any reason. Which device are we talking about here? What is the OS of your computer?
My first suggestion is to call it into VZW as a bad SIM card. They can ship you a new one for free.
That or bring it into a VZW store. Most have spare SIM cards in stock that they can configure and activate for you. They could also try to confirm that its a SIM card problem by popping in one that they know works. If your MiFi still doesn't work with a good SIM card then the device is faulty and should be replaced.

Vodafone K3520 dongle not working with LION.

Hi guys and girls.
Have had my Vodafone dongle used on my laptop for 2 and a half years without any problems.
Installed Lion last night and now the dongle does not work. Tried downloading the latest K3520 software from Vodafone's website but says it is incompatible. Have loaded the OLD Vodafone dongle software and still can't get a connection.

Hello londonman2 and Markymark1
your links are not active anymore.
Are you still using Huawei E169 (E169G, E169V, K3520)?
I have Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10 and would like to use it with this OS.
I searched some solution almost everywhere.
Here is nice info...

Iball Usb modem(dongle) not working on g510 after windows 10 installation

Hi to all, I have just joined the forum to take some help from u people. I have a G510, on which i have just upgraded the OS from windows 8.1 to 10. After upgrading, some issues came like hdmi cable not working, external hard disk not detecting, etc., which with installation of drivers from lenovo website just went away. But still there is a problem of not connecting of my iball airway 21.0 Mp-58 3g usb modem with the lappy. The message coming while installation is "633The modem (or other connecting device) is already in use or is not configured properly". I have written to iball customer care for providing supporting driver for windows 10, but apart from them, if anybody else knows the way out, kindly share that to me. Thanks and regardsVirendra

Hey Dhelios and welcome to the forum -
I read this at their site and it didn't look good. Please note the NOTE:.
Release 3.01 UK - Apple Mac
Mac OS | Mac OSX 10.1-10.3 | Mac OSX 10.4
The ST-330 and ST-USB driver requires BSD support from Mac OSX.
Be sure to enable BSD support during the installation of Mac OSX!!
NOTE: The ST-330 and ST-USB driver does not support Intel based Apple Macs. For Intel based Macs we recommend using an Ethernet modem/router. A list of compatible ST-500 and ST-700 series products is available online here>

Mobile Broadband Connect not working on x301

Hi
I definitely cannot get mobile broadband working on my UK x301
I have a fully updated system with all the Win7 Drivers (using both System update 4 and further manual downloads) and I found a Win 7 version of Mobile Broadband Connect however when loaded it hangs on Initialising... for ages and then complains that "the sim card present on the system cannot be read"
Can anyone help please?

That has been on issue ever since RC1. The Ericsson Broadband Modem only seems to work in specific combinations of older drivers. Also not every access connections version seems to behave nicely in combination with it. My success rate in configuring those has been approx 50% and I gave up.
I did manage a 100% success rate though with all most recent drivers + the specific 7uw706ww ericsson package from the beta website.
There's one catch though. This driver seems to be capped at 384Kbps e.g. stuck in UMTS mode.
For me that's enough to last until proper drivers come out, but it is higly irritating.

Broadband Shield Not Working

Hi FolksI have just changed from O2 broadband to Sky Fibre Broadband.I was initially delighted how easy the Broadband Sheild was to work, and I went in to the customs setting to prevent access to:'Pornigraphy and Adult''Dating'websites as we have children using devices in the house, but this would still aloow us as adults to view typical adult discussion sites.However it doesnt actually block anything, as I have selibreately searched these sites and access to them isn't blocked.I ahve tried talking to Sky but they say in this case what I need to do is block access to specific websites by entering the IP address of each site I want to block, however this is completely nonsense and rediculous, how is this considerd parental controls, as how am I going to be able to get the IP address for every?Had anyone any sensible ideas how to make it work.Basically we have quite a number of devices and I want to block these sites via the router rather than each individual device.CheersAlan

Thats what I believed as well. However after talking directly to a emember of the Sky Sheild team it appears this is very much in its infancy, as there are only 20,000 users using at to date, and i dont think they have it fully tested for problems yet. If its blocked at the router as they say, then it shouldnt matter what settting each device has, the router shouldnt be able to access blocked content. If you have to clear cache files, and internet history and do all sorts of stuff, then if we wish to change or adjust the setting, we have to go through each devices history, and cache files before the Sheild takes effect, then its not at all effective. The response form Sky hasnt been satisfactory at all. I also had a problem accessing my long standing email address via outlook after I changed to Sky (even though it would work perfectly when using my laptop via O2 and BT connections), and one representative told me to get a sky email otherwise ther was nothing they could do, not exactly helpful, not terribly impressed to be honest.

Mobile broadband (un2430) not working with Windows 10 on Folio 9470m

I have had Windows 10 installed on my HP Folio 9470m since October last year (insider program). One thing that I never been able to get to work is the mobile broadband device (un2430). It simply says "Radio off". All attempts to re-install driver (which shows as "working"), disable/enable the device etc etc just leads to same result, that the "Radio is off".I googled this a couple of times and found that other users have the same problem. Also colleagues of mine with same model has also the same problem. It works just fine under Windows 8.1. Anyone has a workaround? I was really disappointed when W10 was released that HP did not update the drivers-page with W10 drivers:http://h20566.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/readIndex?sp4ts.oid=5271102 How can I find out when/if HP will release W10 drivers, including support for mobile broadband, for the HP Folio 9470m?

Thank you for your reply. I've tryed several SIM cards, and arrived to the conclusion that it doesn't work with portuguese operator TMN (all the SIM i've tried from TMN lead to the same result)!
I guess that there is some misconfiguration on WM config files. I found one xml with default configuration for worldwide carriers, and maybe it is possible to change some of those parameters to make it work... I just don't know wich one!
Maybe I'll have some luck, of someone reading this, and that is able to give me a tip to solve the problem.
The SIM card just work well on a 3G usb stick, or even in a celular phone!
Thank you again.
