Hello everyone, If anyone can help with this it would be great. I have a very similar situation. I have a PCTel Inc HSP MicroModem 5, I got the drivers and got it going. It dialed, seemed to initialize and get everything going, but never gave me a connection. I have an external modem that I borrowed working well, so somethings are going right. Same as Tony I have Bigzoo.net as my provider. Any suggestions?
