Finally! Aircard 875 on Vista RTM

Okay so we're a little less bleeding edge.. blogging from a Vista Tablet PC running a Sierra Aircard 875.

The trick is this driver -- http://www.sierrawireless.com/resources/support/Software/3G_Watcher_Generic_1236.msi

Trick number 2 is to remove the Cingular connection manager and ONLY use the Sierra 3G watcher software.  That was the step I was missing.  I still had it on the machine.  Remove the Cingular connection and only use the Sierra software.

And there we go.... one Sierra Wireless 875 connected on a Vista laptop ...that's making this Internet connection to make this blog post as a matter of fact.... and a little less bleeding edge to boot...

...now ... to find antivirus I like.....

Thanks so much for this tidbit!  I've felt naked for the last month without my AirCard.

Thank You. I have been pulling my hair out over this for a few days.

Works perfect now.
