Hi All.

At work we have bought a Netcomm/Dynalink 3G15Wn that works with only these 3G sticks.

Huawei E160G, Huawei E169, Huawei E180, Huawei E220, Huawei K3715, Maxon BP3-EXT, ZTE MF633+, ZTE MF626, ZTE MF627, ZTE MF636

Does Vodafone support any of these models??

Thanx in advance..

Regards,

I believe that the Huawei K3715 is AKA as the Vodem Stick Pro

E220 is the old white vodem with rounded ends. No 900 MHz 3g with that model, only 2100 MHz

My views (except when I am looking out their windows) are not those of my employer.

E220 as advised but make sure it has the latest firmware and software this can be downloaded from www.mobilenetworks.co.nz

Hi John.

based on hairy1's and wongtop's info we opted to buy the Huawei K3715. However when it arrived from Vodafone it turned out to be the K3765 so it wouldn't work. Do you know if the Huawei K3715 is still available and where to get one from??

Thanx for the link.

However there is nothing on the site that says what type of 3G stick it is and we have been down that route and ordered one and found it was the wrong one when it arrived..

I found the correct one here so will order it.

Update on this.

Rather than mess round with more 3G sticks for $150 we bought another 3G wifi router which worked on the one we bought. All are now happy.

Thanx to all those who helped..
