The link to jasons.org was one of the two links from fedoraforum.org that I used to get the connection with the laptop working. I'll continue heading along that path.

Vagabond Aero,
you may need an external power injector to drive the USB modem. As I understand it from previous messages on this list (circa late 2007^1 ), the N800 and N810 can only deliver between 100ma and 200ma to the interface.
Here, in case it helps you out. is the url to an article on how to do this using Ubuntu on a pc/notebook/netbook:

I am a new (~30 hours) owner of a N810 that I like very much. One of the uses I hoped to do with this is connect with my wireless Verizon broadband modem (UM175) and get access when I am outside my wifi zones, like I currently do with my linux laptop. Since wvdial does not exist in /usr/bin, it looks like I may have to attempt to build it myself. Before I head down that path, has anyone else set up a connection with these types of modems?------------------------------------------------------------------------
