One note. I followed the directions to a T, and I copied and pasted the “AT=cgdcont=1″IP”….” line, but it errored after the username and password.

******MANUALLY TYPE IN THE INFORMATION******

I think one of the qutations is not reconized correctly. After I type the line I connected with no problems.

Got it to work as of July 11, 2006. After I followed the directions above it did not work correctly until I rebooted the computer. Then it worked perfectly. Kind of slow at about 9.6 kbps but still cool nonetheless. With better reception I would imagine the speed would increase.

Thanks…

Mine is listed as a “Hardware ID: mdmgen” and when I query the modem it comes back saying it could not be opened and to check for conflicks. Same deal on two different pc’s (both xp+sp2 and blackberry desktop software instaleld).

Hi,
I tried the same settings on my 7100t. I am able to connect, get a DNS, also an IP address but i cannot open a page. I can see the send receive bytes going higher, but the page doesnt open. Could you tell me what could be wrong?
Thanks
