It's too bad that Cisco's VPN client for the Macintosh doesn't seem to be compatible with this card (or any high-speed PPP connection). I got to the Internet just fine but getting into my company's network was a no-go. Bummer.
I've had no problem with my work's Cisco VPN (even uses RSA SecurID / radius) over Verizon or Sprint EVDO - although I use VPN Tracker - not the abysmal Cisco client.
It's a bug in the cicso mac client - it doesn't work over ANY PPP connection
I have a new laptop and its a XPS M1210 running windows Vista. Downloaded the software from Vzam.net for the V640 card. But it just says VZAcess Manager has stopped working. Can anyone help me with this issue. Called Verizon and still waiting on a call back so it must be worse than I though.
I too am having a issue with mine , error 913 , works for a few minutes then wont connect anymore , and of course verizon wont call back on their ticket in with tech
I too have the same computer and am getting the same message. I was told, as of today, I was the first to report such problem. I was told to contact Dell to see if I can work this out. When I reach Dell, I will report my finding, if any.
I hate Vista! I have the same problem but have been able to fix it 2 different ways. First if you open the service and stop the WLAN Auto config service it will work. The second way was a fix I found on the Verizon site. Goto VAccess Manager --- of course the service has to be diabled for it to open, they dont tell you that though...once open click preferences then NDIS Mode...this will be an Always on Mode. Now my issue is once I am on I cannot VPN into work like I can in XP or on my MAC.
Forget about the Rev-0 V640!... the Rev-A V740 ExpressCard is now shipping!
Get the Rev-A V740 ExpressCard for $70 less than verizon stores, and get the best possible customer support by EVDO Experts, by checking out this site: http://www.evdoinfo.com/content/view/1919/64/
I am very new @ this...my company just dropped off the CD and wireless card...the Port that you insert the card is not working properly....I would like an adapter to slip this card into....where can I find this and about how much will this cost.
Anyone know....I would cost to much to get that port fixed. Not worth it...
The card that have says, Verizon Wireless - Broadband Access - National Access. Just
like to card I saw on this page above.
