    Hey i know this existed since the first modem existed and its starting to piss me off after having to deal with this for 2 years...

    I have the White Mifi modem (the first wifi modem 3 brought out)

    and i cant connect to it through usb...i plug it in it opens up the folder with the installation files...then i open 3 connect and it says device not connected...

    is there a fix for that or any way i can set up a manual dial in the connection settings?

    im using windows 7 ultimate

    Mines a complete pest for this issue, sometimes a charge can stop it for a few days but normally i unplug it and plug it back in until it works, it can take a few go's but it eventually works.
    Someone brought up an issue with longer cables causing power issues (I think) on here a while back and it's probably my issue as i'm using a 2, usb extension but the above is worth a shot.

    well its not a long cable...probably 350 cm

    i cant even install the drivers on the laptop...and on the desktop pc constant problem with scanning them...plug in plug out plug in plug out

    just downloaded drivers on the laptop see how that goes (if some one needs xp/vista/w7 drivers or mac drivers you can find them here)

    also with all that fustration installed the newer firmware from netvigator...

    wooohoo now i can set my 3 Mifi not to turn of wifi when no ones using it
