I have bough a UK SIM card for the above modem but am so far unable to activate it using the software toolbox and am unable to edit the properties of the Modem via control panel. Has anyone managed this in any region & more particularly the UK?
I have activated and am using an MC8355 in Australia, so it is definitely possible activate and use it.
There are no Australian carriers directly supported by the configuration software, but its pretty straightforward to create an Access Connection profile for a carrier, as long as the carrier support Bringing Your Own modem (not all do).
Did you use the Mobile Broadband utility to activate your card?
Which UK carrier are you intending to use?
