    I have the E169G
    Driver Version 2.0.3.8X.SP11
    Looks like an update there on that link you sent alright:
    http://www.huawei.com/mobileweb/en/doc/list.do?type=-1&id=4381
    E169 Client Software UTPSB030D01SP04C03 for WinXP&2K&Vista zip.gif (9968 KB) 20-Jun-2008

    Has anyone updated their E169G with the above link?

    I just updated there.

    C:\Program Files\Mobile Partner
    For those of you who are familiar with O2 broadband, it is the same GUI that is used by O2 and in my opinion much nicer than the Three.
    You just need to set up the settings in the app with the settings 3 use.

    The job.

    would you recommend the update or is it pretty much just for the ease of use/visual side of things... it doesnt make it any faster and make coffee come out the usb slots :D

    Well I got the new G?UI up and running with 2s settings.

    Anyone know how I can dis-associate the 3 GUI (C:\Program Files\Huawei technologies\Huawei UMTS Data Card) with
    my 3 modem and have the modem default to this new app @ C:\Program Files\Mobile Partner\Mobile Partner.exe?

    Issu is when I plug in the modem it automatically loads the crappy three software by default.

    seems like the driver version is the same.

    The app is worth the download alone IMO though.

    Download and install TweakUI, and disable autorun on the drive that the modem shows up as. Either that, or just leave the modem plugged in all the time, then there'll be no autorun.
