Antonio, My apologies for being a numpty! I tried to download both files - if only to help with diagnostics - but both files produced errors in USC, so I guess it really doesn't want to be installed! If I can get the modem working, it would be great (my preference though is to get my Bluetooth modem (a Trust 14019 modem with a Newlink BT dongle - this combination works well under windows, but Linux isn't so forgiving!).
