Huawei E220 HSDPA Modem


This morning while trying to connect to the Internet via my Huawei E220 modem on my ASUS EEE PC, I was unable to get connected. Tried it on my Acer Notebook and Desktop PC also failed.

I found that there is a new version of firmware at :

Although I was not sure of the new feature or enhancement, I thought it might help to resolve my problem. Also the date of 14th Jan 2008 convinced me to give it a shot.

However, after updating, I was not able to get connected. Then I remembered that I added Maxis connection while I was in Bukit Mertajam, so I deleted both entry and recreated the SingTel connection. And it worked. I am still not sure whether it was due to the fact that I have two connections created.

On the XP, Mobile Partner was installed after the upgrade. So I uninstalled the Mobile Connect.
