Gustavo, This is a resend of guidance sent earlier. MarvS ==== For Ubuntu Linux users with Intel 536 and 537 chipsets the are driver installation packages available thru http://groups.google.com/group/ubuntu-modems Since 2006, Intel appears to have ceased updates for Linux. For the INTEL537 and INTEL536 chipset modems, the most current support is provided at: http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/intel/Philippe.Vouters/ the Intel-Readme.txt and intel-5337EP_secure-2.60.80.0_2009_02_08.tar.bz2 Unpack under Linux with: $ tar jxf intel*.tar.bz2 Read the included instructions.
