Hi Dave, Unfortunately this didn't work either although I will keep these settings to hand as I'm going to try my 3 mobile via USB cable. What I did find was this... https://forge.vodafonebetavine.net/projects/vodafonemobilec/ It's a Vodafone dialer package which works (or at least the 1.99.17 deb file worked). Doesn't appear to support AMD64 on the experimental drivers and there isn't an AMD64 .DEB package (plus I couldn't get the source working on Hardy Beta AMD64). Anyway, it's working on my Ubuntu 7.10 laptop (32-bit) with the .deb package and that's the main thing (as it's what my dad's running on his laptop). It seems that I also had to specify CHAP authentication and manually enter the DNS addresses (which I poached from Windows). I'll write a small howto later on when my dad brings his laptop back over.
