Salam dari Jakarta!!
I just buy the new 15″ mbp unibody and my E220 gives me a headache …. it even makes me switch back to use my ‘workhorse’ powerbook G4 for the internet! But now I found the answer and I want to share this with you … but the problem is that I CAN NOT connect from mac mobile connect, and can not connect from Internect Connect, I have to go straight to System Preferences!!! If you are okay with this – follow this steps:

1. Open System Preferences, Network
2. Make a new location (very top of interface)
3 Now, on left side of interface you will see a white box … on the bottom of the box there is + and there is -, click the +
4. From choices pick HUAWEI mobile
5. Now in the telephone type *99#
6. IF YOU HAVE IT – type in username and password
7. Click Advance … now in modems first box find “GENERIC”
8. In next box find “GPRS (GSM/3G)”
9. click “OK”
10. Click APPLY
11. Click CONNECT

you should be connect now!!!

cheers

Hi Pupung,
Thank you for your advice. However it seems that the download you supplied does block my sim – it says that vodaphone does not recognize it. I am with Maxis in Malaysia. Do you have any other solutions. I would be eternally greatfull.
Thanks,
M

Zain Kenya Connection for the Mac PPC. After setting the Mobile Partner application (best working location for old modems users to download: http://www.comcen.com.au/products/wireless/downloads)

If you go to the system pref – network. Set New Location Call it Zain or x. Under show option select HUAWEI Mobile. Service Provider you can put Zain Kenya. Telephone you must put *99#*(all Huawei international 3G modems). Click on apply now. From finder Search for internet connect app., on top menu select the Huawei Mobile, under configuration – Edit configuration, from the pop click on the plus option, Description: Zain Kenya, Telephone Number: *99# Note: Where you see Modem, click on that combo and look for HUAWEI Mobile connect – 3G Modem, select that option – click ok. You will be able to now use the internet connect app on a mac. Why? coz it shows you the ip address you are using start time remaining time to verify if it is unlimited, plus Mac had figured that out long before HUAWEI, so you dont have to use that application that they give. hope it helped!

If anyone gets an sms app like the PC one Please post starting with SMS APPLICATION FOR MAC. thanks!
L8az!

The link you posted is NOT 2.08.01.04 but ends with 00, as stated previously – any chance of providing the correct download – been a long time since you posted this!
