>Can anyone recommend a PCI Express UMTS card that does HSUPA as well as >HSDPA? For my project, I would need an external antenna connector, and >ideally an internal SIM card slot (so that it will work in a system like the NET6501 without a SIM card slot on the motherboard). Hi Martin and list, there are several options for you. But please have a look first for a modem that fits the wireless cell phone regulations of your country ;) and also fits your needs. Internal mini PCIe slot: = A mini pcie modem in half length is needed. Please have a look in the next line and follow the link that shows you a mini PCIe card adapter with a sim card slot at the bottom side , you can mount a mini PCIe modem (half length) on < http://direkt.jacob-computer.de/Multimedia_Multimedia_divers_DeLOCK_Converter_Mi ni_PCI_Express_half-size_%3E_full-size_%2B_SIM_-_Riser_Card_(65230)_artnr_101549 8.html?direkt=1&ref=124> ~ 10 euros + a umts antenna and antenna plug, perhaps you drill a hole in the net6501 case. Internal PCIe slot: = A mini pcie modem in full length is needed. Please have a look in the next line and follow the link that shows you a PCIe x1 card adapter with a sim card slot, you can mount a mini PCIe modem (full length) on < http://direkt.jacob-computer.de/Controller_Controller_divers_DeLOCK_PCI_Express_ %3E_mini_PCI_Express_%2B_SIM_-_Mobilmodem_-_Steckkarte_-_PCI_Express_x1_-_UMTS_( 89235)_artnr_353185.html?direkt=1&ref=124> ~20 euros + a umts antenna and antenna plug, perhaps you drill a hole in the adapter slot bracket. External option: = A mini pcie modem in full length is needed. Please have a look in the next line and follow the link that shows you a external box with a sim card slot and external antenna plugs, you can mount a mini PCIe modem or also a wlan mini PCIe card (full length) on! If the both mini PCIe and the PCIe slots are in use by other devices ;) The box ownes a usb port to connect the net6501. < http://www.yatow.de/PC-PCMCIA-3G-USB-Express-Card-Reader/UMTS-Wireless-USB-Mini- PCI-E-Card-Adapter.html> ~70 euros + umts antenna Not the best solutions but they are cheap, easy to install and easy to mount. For the modem perhaps you have a outlook for a Sierra device. Did you search for a firmware update for the novatel? I hope that helps you, good luck martin. ____________________ Kind regards and my best wishes Frank Schuhmann __________ Hinweis von ESET NOD32 Antivirus, Signaturdatenbank-Version 6613 (20111109) __________ E-Mail wurde gepruft mit ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com _______________________________________________ Soekris-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech
