Snow Leopard Fix For K3760 Usb Pro

[JamesAsser]

Ok so like many of you I have the K3760 so called Vodafone Usb PRO which used to cause Kernel panics when running Snow Leopard on my 2009 MacBook Pro.

I could not wait any longer for the VF fix and so searched the net with this topic providing the answers and yes it works 100% and I am using the Usb Pro to type this.


The vodafone k3760 stick is actually an Icon 411 made by Option (it just has a vodafone sticker on it) see their site here

http://www.option.com/en/products/products...modems/icon411/

visit the site below and load the driver for the SL Mac.

Yes, thats right, Option have already updated their drivers for snow leopard. Just download and install this and your stick will work perfectly.

If it isn't set up already, you will need to configure the G141x Modem device that comes up in the Network preferences panel.

So i found my G141x in the network settings and simply typed in *99# in the telephone number field.

its stable with no errors I have completed a speed test and get as of this morning 2mbs down and .5 up so not too bad for where i live.

I understand that this is not a VF fix however it works and is a solution in the short term.

Hi rockettemorton,

If the software is demanding a username and password then you can enter web for both the username and password. As soon as we have any more information on new software releases for Vodafone Mobile Connect the forum will be the place to know.

Thanks,

I am glad it worked and it should work for all macBook Pro running SL as this K3760 is simply a modem with the developers (Option not VF) having written the device drivers. You simply will not have the VF VMC software which in no ways effects your connection to the internet.

I did try web/web but got the same error.
A time scale would be nice for the actual Vodafone software!

Hi rockettmorton,

We've just announced that the VMC Mac Dashboard for Snow Leopard has been approved by our testing team. Further details can be found on our Snow Leopard thread.
