You can by-pass the connection manager entirely by using your modem in a DUN (dial up networking) configuration:

Start> Connect To> Show All Connections ...right click your modem that's under "Dial-up" and select connect

See if that helps

Under the "hardware" tab, I did find something like what might be what you were referring to:

It says 'devices' then way over to the right it says 'selection' 'status' and 'settings'.

Below that, it says 'mobile devices' and has the choices of 'automatic' 'disabled' or 'manual'. next to that is a 'modify' choice.

Below that it says 'Novatel Wireless Ovation U727' There is a check mark next to that and I have it set to 'automatic'.

Further down there are several choices with boxes to check or uncheck:

__ Allow simultaneous connections
__ Prompt before switching connections]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22588217 Sun, 21 Jun 2009 19:17:40 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22587828 Jim_in_VA : go here and download the latest version if you don't have it:

I tried this, but there is no tab called "mobile". These are the eight tabs that are under tools and then settings:

Client, Sounds, Updates, Hardware, VPN, Acceleration, Applauncher, Location/1GPS.

Is there anything else I can do or can I download another version of "smart view" or some other connection version?

Thank you.

I have Millenicom EVDO Rev A service which uses Sprint towers.

I am in the process of ordering an antena, so this might help my issue, but in the meantime...

I have searched the archives and googled this, but can't find the answer to this question.

Somewhere, I read that there is a way to 'force' EVDO Rev A vs. allowing 1XRTT to take over.

I have a Novatel U727 air card via Sprint and use Sprint SmartView, but have yet to figure out how to accomplish this.

Most of the time, when I connect, the computer starts out showing EVDO, then goes over to 1XRTT shortly after it's connected.

Is this possible to 'force' EVDO?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22580589 Fri, 19 Jun 2009 20:48:49 EDT
