1148332 2010-10-28 08:59:00 Hi there: Have an HP Mininote5101 with built in Cellular modem. Purchased an XT Sim card and it just won't work. Interestingly it works a treat with Vodafone. (Telecom's plan however seems much better)

Ran the IMEI number through the Telecom compatibility checker and it correctly picked up the make and model of the laptop and said it would work.

Wondering if anyone knows any tricks to get it up and running.

1148333 2010-10-28 09:01:00 It might have the wrong frequencies - does the in-built modem work on both 850 & 2100Mhz WCDMA?

Vodafone is 900MHz (with a small amount of 2100MHz in main centres). Telecom uses primarily 850 with some 2100 for infill.
