Jens,
Please confirm that I have correctly understood.
You have a very recent new Thinkpad model T400 with the optional
Broadband modem WWBAND which needs a small SIM card sold by your mobile
phone company in order to work, and you have installed the card.
.
If this is NOT correct then explain again what you have.
If this is correct then the linmodems Web site, including scanmodem, has
nothing to do with what you have, because your modem is NOT an old style
analog modem but a very new boradband already digital modem.
Fortunately and hopefully you will not have to work hard.
And perhaps even less if you have Windows on the same machine, to open
your connection a first time.
Even without that, all ou should have to do is to start your computer,
open the Network Manager and click on the button MOBILE to set it to ON
(assuming, I do not know if correct) that your Ubuntu system uses GNOME 3.
I do not use Ubuntu but Fedora. It work immediately without anyeffort.
The first time you use this Mobile device, it will ask you for the name
and network of your SIM card provider.
This dialogue may be slightly easier under Windows, which is why I
suggested to run a first time under Windows.
Good luck.
Jacques
