just like to tell y'all that the EU version of this card works with AT&T 3G in the US with version 1.1.9.3 of the software, confirmed.

BTW, I would appreciate it if someone could provide me with the 1.1.9.22 firmware for this card.

Thanks

regarding the internal EV-DO card for x300:

Checked prices on ebay, ranges from $25 to $170,

Is the 42T0929 (MC5725) the only whitelisted card or can the 39T5664/41W1177 (MC5720) also be used without bios warning?

Henning

I really appreciate your advice guys.

Thanks to all of you.

First off, I apologize for beeing a bit off topic but here it goes. I live in Europe and are starting a 5 week trip to the US on monday. Me and my X300 with an unlocked 8775 WWAN card need to be more or less online all the time. I guess all of you know about the ridicules roaming carges imposed on i...

I have the new firmware installed. Thanks for the help. The firmware is actually dated 12/12/07. BTW, what version of 3G watcher and driver files are you folks using? the generic one from Sierra or a newer version?

Anyone tried flashing their Lenovo 8775 WWAN card with Sierra's Telstra firmware from:

Hello vpn-user, I just wanted to thank you for those modded driveres. Going from a sluggish wwan experience to a really working macine....Excellent. Thank you. btw, any news on firmware version for this card? I have the 42t0931 unbranded EU card with firmware ver. H1_1_8_3MCAP. Is this the latest? R...

Thanx for the excellent info. Can anyone shed some light on the SIM installation procedure?

I was hoping that ordering the correct WWAN card with a corresponding antenna assembly would be sufficient to make this work. Any comments?
