  • Cons
    causes blue screen fail

I have two laptops. Lenovo T60 with 2GB ram - constantly drops out and lenovo ideapad with 2gb ram - crashes the whole system. Good one vodafone - another waste of time.

Absolute rubbish this mega modem. Major problems with win 7 64 bit pro. Crashes/freezes when downloading files thru Firefox 4.01. It surfs OK and the speeds are good, but god help you if you try to download a file. When I did the firmware update it said the connection speed was 28.1 Mbps. I disconnected once via the software and yet under my wireless indicator it said I was still connected but greyed out. Then the download bar in software went berserk and said I had downloaded 54gb....in less than 2 minutes (if only). There is major conflict somewhere cannot find it and Vodafone not interested.Have had to reinstall 4 times from disk image, yet no prob with the earlier modem. Vodafone offered mega modem to existing customers for free......wish i had never heard of it.

Will not work on current Dir451 Route and the Netcom 3g router 850 mhz not supported.
I took me many hours to find this out and went back to my old system.
Also when used on my laptop it constantly drops out
