One *very *exciting feature that I just stumbled upon when researching this article is the Windows 7 Sensor compatible GPS Location driver that gets installed.
For instance, when I am connected, it ALWAYS seems to display UMTS as the connection type, even though I know I am on HSDPA. There is not as much status information available as when using Wireless Manager. I can’t find a way to do this with the new setup Using Wireless Manager it was possible to force the connection to only use HSDPA etc. There are only a couple of negatives I have discovered so far: Here you can enter the APN and username/password if required by your ISP. Note: This is completely different than if you select properties in the Network Connections windows. To do this you need to go to the networks list and right click, show properties. There is only one trick you may need for setting the APN. You can set it to automatically connect when there is no other connection available, which is quite handy and works quite well. One obvious change is that it shows up in the networks list accessed via the system tray like so: It integrates with Windows differently to a dialup modem. I am not sure if this device type was available in Vista, but I have certainly never seen it before.

The upshot of this is that, after installing these drivers you don’t need any third party software to get online! The new driver actually gets the broadband card to show up as… (drum roll). This is what made it particularly tricky to setup. The previous driver installs your broadband card as an old school modem (with COM ports et al). This driver is radically different from the previous one. Either way, all the drivers are much newer :)
Some devices are dated and version 1.0.0.52. The drivers are also HCL certified by Microsoft. The crucial thing about the new driver is the change in version from 4.4.50.6.0 (dated ) to. It comes as a Setup.exe, including both 32-bit and 64-bit drivers.Īfter installing the new driver (no need to uninstall the previous one), you will have the following new devices in device manager:į3507g Mobile Broadband Driver (Network Adapters)į3507g Mobile Broadband Device Management (COM3)

The new filename is 7uw706ww.zip (direct download link), and comes in at 40MB (10 MB smaller than the last driver). Just to make things extra confusing (and harder to find) they removed the actual card model number from the description. The driver is now listed under Vodafone and AT&T Wireless WAN (HSPA) Driver. You would never know from glancing at the downloads page because it doesn’t list versions numbers or publish dates. It’s become clear from comments on my previous article, that Lenovo have released a new Windows 7 driver for the Ericsson F3507g Mobile Broadband card. In the meantime, you can check out my article about the Remote Desktop Services, which discusses some the new RDP features in more detail.Update: Ericsson F3507g Mobile Broadband on Windows 7 with Lenovo Thinkpad 14 October, 2009 I will probably write more about them soon.
I only mentioned the most important ones here. Support for bidirectional audio: Enables use of microphones for VOIP.Multi-monitor support for virtual desktops.Remote Desktop & Application feed: Allows end users to launch remote applications from a central location.Automatic link integration into the Start Menu to RemoteApp apps and desktops on Windows Server 2008 R2 servers.The cache can also be distributed across user PCs.Caches content from remote file and Web servers on a server in a branch location.

Offline files are now copied to the Offline Files cache and then synchronized in the background with the server.
