How to change mobile broadband telecommunications businesses

I installed in my X220T factory Sierra Wireless MC8355 - Gobi 3000 card WWAN Mobile broadband.  It came with an ATT SIM card installed in the slot, even if I have not activated the account.

For reasons of cover and the fact that a prepaid monthly data is available from Verizon, I would prefer to use Verizon.

What should I do to change from Verizon?  Is it a simple matter of replacing the ATT SIM with a Verizon SIM card; and then activating the service?

Newbie and need advice.  TIA!

Hi Dutch!

Use ThinkPad Mobile broadband to activate. It is in the installation of the factory, and you can get it here:

If you are using just to Verizon in the United States, you don't need a SIM card.

Tell us how it goes.

    I just managed to get my connected nb100, here's how:

    Step 1 - enter the SIM card - instructions provided with the device

    Step 2 - upgrade of the network manager

    #Right click the icon of your management network at the top right and select "about". If it is less than 0.7 (such as mine) upgrade is necessary.

    #upgrade to the network manager > = 0.7
    > sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

    #add the following at the end:
    > main deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/network-manager/ubuntu hardy
    > deb - src http://ppa.launchpad.net/network-manager/ubuntu hardy main

    #save, out, run Manager Update, install updates and restart the computer. If the Network Manager icon is not present - stops completely. Should appear after turning back.

    Step 3 - install the driver OHSS and ozerocdoff

    Right-click on the network manager, and then select "Edit connections" > mobile broadband. Change the listed connection and insert the following code:
    username: orange
    password: orange

    Due to problems of privacy at home, I have to get mobile broadband soon. How will I know that my laptop has the

    stuff? Recommendations for a mobile broadband provider?

    Hello

    Your laptop should have no problem using the USB key provided with any mobile operator, you decide to choose - the choice of the carrier must be made taking into account the costs and the reception as some carriers will probably signals better than others where you live, so the decision will be personal to you.

    Another option of privacy you may wish to take account is the use of a VPN like the one below (I personally use this one and felt very reliable).  Basically, this creates a tunnel encrypted inside your Internet normal, if wired or wireless, in which passes all data.  It is also a safety precaution good to use if you connect to public hotspots.

I don't know why it happens by itself. But for connection Wifi still works well and wifi interface is always detected in network adapter but 4G is missing from the list.

    In Device Manager I see list of pilot missing in other devices-> HUAWEI Broadband Driver Module is missing from my Windows with Bing 32 bit OS 8.1. I try to find the driver through windows update, website of hp or other sources, but is not found. I also tried to update the BIOS firmware to the latest version and upgrade of such software firmware driver LAN, etc. from the HP Web site, but still can not fix missing pilot of the HUAWEI Module of high speed.

    I also try reboot several times, making recovery, but still having lack of driver for HUAWEI ADSL Module.

    Last effort, I try to current level Windows 8.1 to Windows 10, but still no conclusion success lack driver HUAWEI or fixing my 4G network missing question.

    Now I can still connect to the internet with my 4 G card more every trip.

    Thank you.

    Kind regards

    Wachyu

    I finally found the problem with the HUAWEI ADSL Module in my stream 8 HP (after 2 days of sleep trying to install and uninstall the driver and try all options).

    It seems maybe some Windows Update or a driver is trying to change the firmware inside the card top debit MOBILE HUAWEI to download mode (VID:12 d 1 PID:1568), so it can't use any driver installed in point 8.1 of Windows.

    I tried to manually change the download mode inside the HUAWEI tools firmware: Revskills (B. Kerler credit) return to the standard mode and then reset, then the Device Manager will detect again under the new material in NIC as HUAWEI Mobile Broadband Module (VID:12 d 1 PID:1570) and automatically installed its driver from Microsoft.

    VOILLAA, My Mobile Broadband can now be re-used to connect to Internet and now also presented in the connection.

    A lot of delicate here to force Windows using HUAWEI driver to use the COM Port to communicate with the card mobile broadband HUAWEI inside and then using Revskills tools to change the mode to return to standard mode.

    If someone knows this problem and wants my help, just ping me and I'll be happy to help you in the orientation.

  • Mobile broadband - connection limited

    Hi all

    I use a Tablet 2 with an Ericsson 5621 gw adapter and a Vodafone Egypt USB SIM card (which works fine in my Sony Ericsson Xperia arc phone including creation of hotspot & using internet etc.).

    Now, I can connect to the Vodafone Mobile Braodband, but always only with a limited connection (no), the driver is new, the unit works fine, no probs, same connections complete shows and stable access connection to Vodafone, only the network in windows 8 32-bit dialog box indicates limited access, and it is, says the Device Manager.

    The thing is it worked fine for a while, the only thing I changed since then was to try if the hotspot feature worked (which is not, and how boring is that), so I disabled the hotspot, and since then, the mobile broadband network is limited.

    I also checked my normal Vodafone SIM card (which has also a data volume of 5 GB or more and also works well in my Xperia arc incl. internet and hotspot), with same result, ditto my SIM Lenovo Mobile Access.

    where is this option to restart? must be somewhere... Please?

  • Satellite A100 - BT mobile broadband

    Here's an email from BT, I just can't get their mobile broadband services working with my Satellite A100

    Hi Mr J Cairns,.

    further to our conversation regarding your problem with Broadband BT's Mobile on Windows 7, we have concluded that the fault is caused by its windows 7 autonomous, there seems to be a problem with Dial-up networking on the computer, our software indicates that there is a problem with the "Remote Access Connection Manager service" and try to manually start the Service generates an error about its dependencies.

    My only suggestions to solve the problem is to contact your PC vendor for diagnosis or to perfom a factory restore on the computer, the provider of your PC will be able to help with this, we will contact you in a few days to see how you have progressed with the question and if the advice I gave helped resolve the issue.

    Any advice appreciated

    LOL :) such emails are very usual for service people who don t know what the problem could be it of very simple for someone point to the manufacturer of the computer and computer question s say.

    Can I ask you what problem do you have?

    I assume you are using a 3rd party Bluetooth modem and are not able to install Win 7 usign?
    Am I wrong?

    Why this should be a laptop problem?

    As mentioned in your message, the question could be between BT and Win 7 modem.
    In my opinion the BT modem manufacturer should provide you with assistance.
    There may be some problems between BT and Win 7 modem configuration?
    Who knows.

    Are you able to connect other devices BT the A100? Yes? Well in this case, the battery of BT is installed correctly.
    Otherwise I would recommend reinstalling the BT stack and set it up again.

  • R7000 as router with the router for mobile broadband Internet

    Hey guys. First of all, my apologies for my somewhat inadequate English skills. Secondly, I am brand new to the community, so apologies in advance for any fault :-) Third stop, apologize for having a complete beginner :-D

    So, for the issue: I recently bought a router top mobile broadband 4G (4 G MBR) to my apartment, because of the gap of strength and speed signal very low quality of the cable to the ground on my Street (fiber is to come next year).

    But the router provided by my operator isn't on par with my router R7000 Nighthawk when he comes to reach wifi, wifi speed, number of outputs of LAN and power of the processor.

    So, I want to use my R7000 my router, the internet signal from the air to the 4G MBR, then by cable to the WAN of the R7000.
    In other words; I want to just 4G MBR to simply pass / transfer the internet signal to my nighthawk R7000 router so I can use the R7000 as my router, LAN and wifi.

    How can I set this up?

    Thanks for your help!

    Update: the MBR has been no help at all. As far as I could tell, there is no possibility to bridge or pass-through mode. The R7000, as she does the work. I just put it in AP mode, adjust all the wired connections DHCP/auto IP assign and everything works great.

    The laptop is equipped with a SIM-Card-Slot-In card and throug this Slot I can see some golden conectors.

    My mobile is Win7 home premium with the typical standard configuration, no change.

    Is there something that I did not?

    I appreciate any help, thanks in advance!

    Greetings - sand

    Hello mate,

    It's not because you have a card reader sim you have a modem installed inside.

    If your laptop is wwan ready, it comes with the sim card reader and installed antenna, and that's all.

    If you don't see the wwan modem in the Fn + F5 menu it is probably because you do not have a modem.

    Take a look here to see if you have a wwan modem or not: http://consumersupport.lenovo.com/us/en/configuration/configuration.html

  • HPC6180 function to scan lost all-in-one photosmart when changing the broadband providers

    After changing the broadband providers I could no longer use the functions to scan my printer on the network. Print still works perfectly, but when I tried to scan I got a message telling me that the scanner could not be found.

    It is a symptom that is very similar to the one described elsewhere on the forums - but the problem in my case was not fixed by any amount of uninstall and reinstall the software. If all goes well, describing the fix here I can someone else save a lot of time.

    When the scanner is installed first the device name is stored somewhere, and even if the software is uninstalled and reinstalled L4 is still remembered the old name.

    The diagnostic scanner utility shows clearly a name that cannot be 'ping' because it is not the same as the new name for the printer. The suffix shown by the diagnostic Scanner differs from that shown in an IPCONFIG/all (the connection-specific DNS suffix).

    Thus, in may a case my original router was distributing the domain suffix '.» «Home» so my printer was HPxxxx.home for the scanner software. When I installed a new router that he used the ".config" suffix if the printer has become HPxxxx.config and the software couldn't find it (even when re-installed).

    It seems that ONLY the scanner software uses this mechanism to talk to the printer - printing features are not affected. But with the scanner software you're looking for the wrong name it can't possibly work. Even if you re-install the software or 'fix' references. Home in the registry to point to HPxxxx.config something somewhere modifies the registry return entries.

    SOLUTION:

    Find a way to change the router to distribute a different suffix - the same as your old router. In my case it was impossible in the GUI of the router then I 'saved' the configuration of the router in a modified file - the name of the suffix in the file text - and re - load configuration in the router.

    Now the printer is HP software and I can't figure out how to fix the HP software to recognize a new name.

    I hope someone saves some time - but unfortunately there are a lot of reasons that the scan function may suddenly stop working - as evidenced by the publication on the subject.

    Good luck!

    So, the SOLUTION is to re - configure your new router to use the same domain as your old router suffix. Router usually come with a configured arbitrary domain suffix - and the HP software is not resisted this development.
