I was recently given an AnyData DTP-600W Mini PCI-E 3G modem that came from
an Amazon Kindle with a broken screen.

I've tried plugging this into my net6501 however it doesn't show up either
in comBIOS or under the OS as a PCI device. The datasheet mentions that it
also has a USB interface and the net6501 manual mentions PCI-E slot J5 is
USB only so I've tried swapping the modem about with the SSD I normally
have in that slot. When I boot into the OS I don't see any USB devices
(unidentified or otherwise) appear on any of the controllers.

The only thing I can think of is that as there is no SIM attached, that
might be stopping the modem from registering? I was thinking I could use
something like this:

...but I don't want to splash out if it's not going to help.

Does anyone have any experience of these sorts of devices?
