Hi,

I am a newbie on the forum. I have just got Qualcomm GOBI 2000 on my new Lenovo X201s. Card is unlocked and working in Windows 7 – that is proven. In Server 2008 R2 – I successfully installed the drivers from Windows 7 – no visible problems in Device Manager.

My question is – What now? What kind of management software do I need to set up my connection? Server 2008 R2 tries to use the modem in a Dial-Up connection, but this of course will not work as connection to GSM Network does not require dialing.

In windows 7 I use Lenovo Access Connection software which manages connection based profiles successfully. Unfortunately Lenovo Access connection package refuses installation on Server 2008 R2.

Anybody with experience on this topic?

Thanks
================================================

One hour later – success !!! I have used the Lenovo Access Connection for Vista x64. It installed flawlessly under Server 2008 R2 and works – now I have my WWAN Connection working.

The only issue is not to find a suitable antenna as my X201 does not have embedded antennas for WWAN. I am wondering is somebody has tried to install original WWAN Lenovo antenna from X200 on X201s. The X201s has a WXGA+ (1440 x 900 resolution) and it seems Lenovo did not make enough space for 4 antennas in the notebook cover.

The fight continues.
