Hi this is a bit lengthy, sorry.  But any help you could give would be appreciated.

 

Just changed to a new computer windows 7 and because of hardware not supporting in-built WirelessWAN module so digged out the old Vodafone E870 to use on my computer.

 

Then after installing VMC Lite. I believe the DNS server setting is not working as in below highlighted text from console capture:

Hi BruceTTTHwUK,

 

Thanks for your post here.

 

To be honest the first thing that I would try would be to install a newer version of VMB (Version 10.2.302) which is compatible with your modem and Windows 7 32 and 64 bit versions.

 

If this still doesn’t resolve your issue please let us know so we can get this looked at in more detail for you.

 

James
