Unhappy Windows 7 and 3G-modem

Hi all,

I'm somewhat stuck...

I installed the Win7 RC successfully on my Shift. Everything works fine - except for 3G-modem.

It works fine in SnapVue and can be controlled via ShiftControl on Win7. It even reports signal strength and operator name.

But I can't use it for datatranfer in Win7. I can't see any NDIS-network like being used by internetsharing.

I'm using an outofthebox Snapvue without any hacks.

I even tried all tricks mentioned in the forum like disabling all USB-connections in WDMC.

Is there any trick I missed to get the modem working in Win7 without liberating SnapVue?

I wonder if I should reinstall Win7.

By the way: I can't install Extension Kit USBLanDriver because there isn't any hardware for it. But I guess it's for an external cable LAN-card, or? Can't be the rootcause for my issue, or?

Cheers,

D

Hey, I'm not sure what's wrong with the 3g in win7 on your phone, but I do know that the drivers for the usblanextension (or whatever) will only be needed after you plug in your usb/lan dongle thingy that comes with the phone. It's the box with the three usb ports and an ethernet port. When you plug that in, windows 7 will install a generic usb hub driver. You'll have to go into your device manager and update the drivers by browsing to the directory where you placed the drivers.

After that, you'll have full use of the usb/lan extension.

Good hope!

Caid.
