That said, I will tell you that I'd rather a Huawei modem than a ZTE, because ZTE are opaque with their AT command set. Anyway, if you cannot afford a Huawei E160 (I know they went missing in our market), then maybe the expensive Huawei E1820 will do? No, I know you want to save on expenses. So try this on MF192 (I was given the string by a mole I have inside ZTE, but because I am unwilling to buy Orange credit, I never quite got round to testing it). To disable the virtual CD-ROM so that the modem only presents itself as a modem, try the following AT commands from hyperterminal: at OK at%usbmodem? %USBMODEM: 1 OK *at%usbmodem=0* %USBMODEM: [1] CD DRIVER PS: I still believe you can get someone to find a Huawei E160... even 2nd hand. It's guaranteed to work if the ZTE refuses. I recall I proved to you that Huawei works, and recommended it, right? Maybe all that work I did was not useful for you. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I can't hear you -- I'm using the scrambler.
