    Hi..I have connected the airtel3g modem to my laptop.it’s all connect .but the network does not come.

  33. I am not able to establish 3G dongle from past one month properly. I have tried all the methods given in this article. But it is not working on properly with my desktop system, whereas the same modem 3G dongle is working fine with my PC, can you suggest what is wrong and how I can correct the problem. Pls reply.

  34. choose WCDMA Preferred.

  35. i found only three networks in network mode..i.e. GSM only,,WCDMA only and WCDMA preffered…and also there is no option of bands…so what should i do now??

  36. Whether you have installed third party Antivirus on your laptop?

  37. When I insert the dongle in the port of my laptop with Windows 8.1 OS, the AV says “scanning drive D:” and then “no virus found”. Drive D: is visible in the device management window but not displayed in the “this PC” (my Computer) space even though other drives are visible. I gathered from the web that this is general problem faced by users of Windows 8/8.1 OS since it is geared to work through wireless devices like bluetooth and wifi. How may I install the software in Windows 8.1 environment?

  38. Which networks you get when search manually?

  39. What is the problem you face when you insert dongle in the port of your PC?

  40. Windows 8/8.1 is not automatically detecting the drive in the Airtel 3G (Huawei) Dongle where the installation software is located. Any solutions? Thanks P.S. I installed it on PC with Windows 7 os quite easily.

  41. I have d link dwm-156 modem. My area is airtel up(east). When I insert sim in moden it shows no service. 🙁 I contacted customer care and they said that I need to manually search the network. I searched network but my modem shows some numbers instead if airtel 3G.
