ColorCodePurple Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 I am visiting my grandparents in my summer vacations,since they dont have internet Dad gave me his USB modem (huawei EC1260C) the problem is the darn thing is not working! In my computer window the USB appears as CD drive (F:)reliance it contains the same setup file as the CD that I got along with it,I dont think my computer even detects it as a modem I am running windows Vista Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shantz Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 WoD: This is something very common. It happens in linux too. But in linux we have a utility called "usb_modeswitch" that allows the usb modem to switch to modem mode and be detected correctly.. Search if you can find something similar for windows..
