Dell :: Swapping Sprint Mobile Broadband Card From XPS M1530 To New XPS 15
Feb 2, 2012
I currently have a 4 year old Dell XPS M1530 that recently died due to an rough impact. About to buy a new Dell XPS 15 and was wondering if I can easily swap my Sprint Mobile Broadband Card between the two. And if so would I only need to download a new driver for it? I am currently grandfathered in with Unlimited Data on my current card plan and I would hate to have to get a new one requiring a new contract with Limited Data.
I have an XPS M1330 with an internal Dell Mobile Broadband Mini-card 5720 VZW for Verizon. The Dell Mobile Broadband Utility (DMBCU) now reports an APPCRASH upon launch only when Windows Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) is installed. I'm certain it is due to IE8 and probably the required MeadCo Zeepe add-ins that are required for dmbcu.exe functionality. Upon uninstallation of IE8, the dmbcu.exe works flawlessly.
Is there any update or plan to update the DMBCU for the 5720 VZW minicard?
I need to change providers from Verizon to AT&T. This modem came with the AT&T Sim card installed in my notebook. The software (Dell Mobile Broadband Utility Help) says " Choose Network Selection from the Settings Menu. Select AT&T and click Load." Unfortunately, Network selection is not an option.
How do I do it? This modem is compatible with Verizon, AT&T and Sprint networks.
Is there or will there be a Windows 8 driver for the Dell 5540 mobile broadband HSPA card?Now that Windows 8 has RTM'd I was expecting a few more drivers to be released but this one currently doesn't work on my fairly new XPS.
Is there an alternative driver from the chipset manufacturer I can try? I'm happy to try out a beta driver if available.
I HAVE A 3 YEAR OLD DELL STUDIm O 1747 (YEP IT WAYS A TON), AND AFTER I start up the ole computer and Icon comes on a bit later in the desktop tray that says "mobile broad band not found. I am quite sure it came with the Original Operating system (windows 7). and I have been considering reinstalling the operating system provided by Dell which I still have for Windows 7....Which is a hasslel the last resort...I tried doing a recovery on the system but I will be damed if I can remember the password even though the computer boots up and I get my display window every time..
I have dell xps l501x with embedded 5620 mobile broadband mini card. Vz access manager says that device is disabled. How can I fix. Or in device bad and have to replace?
I have a E6410, install sim card, load and start Mobile Broadband Manager and it say me an error "Mobile Broadband Device not found"
I already download and install Wirless Mobile Broadband Drivers, both of them (5620 and 5540 mini card) i realy dont understand how to determine which of them installed in my laptop.
How may I find out if on my XPS 17 702X I have installed a mobile broadband device?
Tried on Device Manager and nothing found but when I checked Radio Control Options via Wiindows Mobility Center, on the Radio Control Options
the Mobile Broadband option is mentioned but without possibility of thicking it! Also when I go via Dell Mobile Broadband Manager The msg "The mobile broadband device is not found.
I bought a used XPS M1530 from a friend a few months ago and he told me it did have Bluetooth, but I've tried everything I can think of and can't get it to work. I went to computer management services, it's says it's set to automatic and is running, nothings happening.
I bought a f3507 WWAN card on ebay which is a re-branded dell 5530 card. It is recognized in device manager on in vista on my dell latitude z600 computer but the dell drivers don't work.
I am using a Dell XPS M1530 laptop. I had to re-install the OS as it was infected by some virus. Now the problem is I am not able to connect to the internet. Network adapters are not showing any wireless adapters. They show 1) bluetootth device ( Personal Area Network) and 2) Bluetootth Device ( RFCOMM Protocol TDI). No wireless adapters.
The wifi/bluetooth on my Dell XPS M1530 with an Intel 4965AGN wifi adapter erratically blinks off and on, flashing the status on the screen. This began happening about a year ago, but eventually stopped doing it. Now it's begun again. Flashing on and off is intermittent, but it's been happening more and more frequently--5-10 times/hr now. Sometimes it just flashes on and off once, sometimes, more rarely, 10-15 times.
This happens in Vista, Vista safe mode, as well as Ubuntu run from a USB key. That leads me to believe that it's a problem with the hardware. If I turn the wifi switch on the side of the computer off, it does shut the wifi off; turning the switch back on turns wifi on, but sometimes as soon as it's on, the wifi/bluetooth will start blinking on and off on screen. I have tried taking the adapter out and putting it back in a couple times. This didn't seem to change anything.
I own a Dell XPS M1530 laptop and recently my windows vista was not working properly so i decided to reinstall the windows again. I installed each and every driver but when i was installing the Bluetooth driver, it shows me "Activate Bluetooth by Fn+F2 or Radio On/Off Button". My Radio button is already on the ON position and when I press Fn+F2 nothing happens. I need to install this driver
I am trying to connect my Dell Dimension E310 to WiFi using my Sprint Sierra 589 USB adapter but I am not able to get through.i have installed Sprint S/w for connecting WiFi using the USB adapter. After I connect USB adapter, it shows Wireless connection icon in right bottom but when I right click to wireless network connection in Network connections - it gives me on 2 options - General & Advanced. I don't see Wireless Network tab.If connect the Sprint card to my laptop & try to connect the laptopn, it works. The internet on laptop get connected using Sprint Card instead of my laptop existing card which indicates the Sprint card is working. how to make above successful OR I need to purchanse new WiFi adapter which can connect to Dell E310 (after googling some adapters, found few WiFi adapters which work on XP)
I recently formatted my XPS M1530 and installed Windows 7 32-bit Ultimate on it. Everything works flawless, except for the wireless. I have tired installing the Vista drivers available on the Dell website but it did not work. I have tired several other drivers (compatible with my product) also, but they too dint work. Infact, my bluetooth doesnt even work.
I just installed Windows 7 on my M1530, and everything works flawlessly...EXCEPT bluetooth. I downloaded the drivers from the dell website (for vista 32bit), but when I try to install it says "Press Fn+F2 or turn on the wireless switch". The wireless switch is already on, and I press Fn+F2, but to no avail. It worked fine on Vista Home Premium 32bit. I tried running the install file in compatibility mode too, to no avail. how to make it work?
Problem I've been having with my laptop. Following the directions of a Dell technician while trying to resolve a separate problem, I deleted the partitions on my hard drive and manually reinstalled both Vista and all the drivers that were on the Dell CD that came with my laptop. When I tried connecting to the internet, Vista said I did not have any wireless networking hardware, but before the reinstallation it worked just fine. I am able to connect to the internet using a wired connection, but my wireless adapter still isn't working. I use Windows Vista 32-bit SP1
I have tried Intel tools and latest drivers ( w/ and w/o pro wireless utility) but cannot pass thru code 10 error. Tried uninstall and install....as earlier card 4965 agn worked fine but seems like some conflict is stopping successful 5300 agn driver install.
Is there a way to turn my old PC (P4 3.0GHz, 1GB RAM, 40GB HDD) into a Mobile Broadband Router using my Verizon 4G USB device? (like a CardlePoint router)I am searching some of the "PC to Router" software titles, but I am unable to find my type of setup: (support USB 4G as internet source)DD-WRT, ClearOS, ZeroShell, RouterOS, Untangle, etc.
-use my Verizon USB 4G device as my internet source -have a single NIC on my PC router plugged into a switch -all my other PCs would be plugged into the same switch
Recently got a mobile broadband dongle for my laptop, shows 7.2 Mbps speed in the status window and under activity the received bytes is shooting up, as I write this is has went from 25,000,000 to 35,000,000, that's about 10 mg for a few seconds, it does this even when I have no page open, I can't see anything in task manager, I don't know why it's downloading so fast when there's nothing there, also because of this it is slowing my browsing down,
I just got my wireless broadband and can't connect with my dell inspiron 530.It first told me that 'this computer does not have a wireless network adaptor installed and configured'
Then I tried to connect another way, and it was asking me for user name and password. I put in what was on the back of the wireless adaptor - the name, and the wifi key number as the password. It looked like it was trying to connect but didn't.
I have a desktop PC where the only internet connection is via a 'USB mobile broadband dongle'.I have connected the PC via ethernet cable to the ethernet port on a d-link wifi router (which isn't connected to the internet).I'd like to be able to connect other non-PC devices (eg my mobile phone) to the router via wifi in order to connect to the internet.To do this, I gather that one possible solution is to bridge the LAN and dongle connections. My first problem is that in 'Network Connections', only my USBdongle connection is shown (see pic) - there is no icon for the LAN/ethernet. In device manager, the "Atheros AR5007EG Wireless Network Adapter" and "Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller" are both showing without any ?'s etc
Other info:I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 on a HP Pavilion All-in-one MS200 desktop.
i had broadband connection to the computer having windows xp os and i have a nokia c6 mobile having wifi and 3g.is it possible to get connected with wifi using broadband
I am looking for a 3G mobile broadband wireless router WITH dual band frequencies and 4 gigabyte ports OR could the DAP-1350 be connected to my DIR 655 that at least has the gigabyte ethernet ports? (Would I connect it to the Internet port or to one of the Ethernet ports and turn the 655 into an access point?)
I have a sprint 250u Sierra USB for my Internet. There isn't anything else available where I live, and don't even get me started on satellite Internet .What I'd like to do is have an Internet connection with a wireless router with dual band frequencies and at least 4 gigabyte switch ports to share a NAS device that I'm going to buy in the near future along with a printer and surveillance camera. That way I don't have to have multiple wireless devices to connect to for what I want to be able to do.
Currently I am hosting a 7 day mountain retreat, for about 90+ people. Clearly they are dependent on the internet teet as am I I am trying very hard to provide internet to our friends, but I just can't seem to figure it out I have a Mobile Broadband Router (MBBR) which limits connected devices to 6, so I figured that if connect a home router with wifi (WIFI) that allows 253 connections problem solved right? So I put a short LAN cable from the LAN port on the MBBR to the WAN port on the WIFI and presto! The WIFI gets a IP address, but does not allow other users of the WIFI to get internet. I've even killed all security on the WIFI and put the WIFIs IP in the DMZ on the MBBR. I noticed the DNS was the same as the gateway on the WIFI, so I changed that to the DNS on the MBBR still nothing.
PS Yes I have a connection on the MBBR I am on it now.Connecting the LAN cable from the MBBRs LAN to the WIFIs LAN extends the range, and grants internet to the WIFI users... but uses the MBBRs DHCP to give IP addresses, which limits to 6.I guess the goal here is bypass the limitation of the MBBR by using the WIFIs DHCP to issue IPs?
I'm living in Australia for a few months and my accommodation does not have a phone line, so I've been using mobile broadband dongles instead. This worked fine until recently, when I abruptly became unable to access the internet. The laptop recognises the dongle and seems to connect, but the download/upload speeds are at a constant zero bytes per second (I have tried to ping Google while 'connected' but received no response). I have tried two dongles from Dodo and one from Telstra, with the same results. Initially, I assumed that this was simply due to signal strength, but each of the three dongles I have tested work fine on another laptop in the same location (I'm using one of them to post this). I have also tried using the dongles with my laptop in other locations, including the city centre, but with no success.
Also, I seem to be unable to connect to any wireless networks (e.g. McDonalds wifi) - the laptop detects the network ok, and seems to be connected, but I am unable to access any web pages etc. In the Network and Sharing Centre, the laptop is connected with the wifi network, but the wifi network does not seem to be connected to the internet. I'm unsure if this is related to the above problem, however.Like I say, everything seems to have been working fine up until about a week agoIf
I want to share mobile broadband with another computer.One desktop running on windows7 and connected to wireless router netgear wgt624 v3 via ethernet cable. The other laptop is running on windows7 and has wireless card. Both computers are connected wirelessly via router on private network within workgroup and can share files between each other. The mobile broadband dongle is connected to desktop pc and desktop is running the internet Now I want the desktop pc which is running internet by wireless dongle to share that internet with laptop via wireless router. I have tried setting is up but couldn't do that. When I connect the dongle to desktop pc it use the same IP address 192.168.1.1 which is already used by wireless router. Tried to configure different IP in router but didn't work.
