Re: Verizon Aircard Software disables Ethernet port?

I was not referring to just ICS (someone trimmed the original post and left
just that)
I orginally talked about both.. networking and also ICS (basically sharing
the internet connection with other users by way of networking or ICS, had to
use the Kyocera KR1 wap/router to share the internet with multiple machines,
verizon software blocked it).. You said it would never happen... It may have
never happened to you, but it has definately happened to me....
Sounds like people that say the earth was flat and could never be round, or
even they will never get rid of analog phones, etc.... I still say never say
never....

We are talking about two different things...
YOU are referring to ICS - which IS sharing.
I'm not. And I haven't been... And it isn't what Larry was asking
about. You are off on a tangent...

I'm ONLY talking about the co-existence of a VZW data card and it's
software and drivers on the same machine that also has Ethernet LAN
connections used for hard wired connection to a network. Installing
VZW software does NOT disable the network connections also on a machine.
If it did, no business would ever use the cards - IT would have a cow.

I and thousands of others use wireless when mobile - and we use
Ethernet when a good old RJ-45 is available. Plain and simple. Nothing
hard
here...
Nothing was said about sharing the wireless connection over a
network...

I use the NEWEST version of the software available.
The one available "NOW"... not an 'older' version.

Trust me, if VZW or their software were disabling Ethernet
connections, there would be many people HOWLING!!
And, there simply isn't.

Enterprise customers would be up in arms - IT departments
would be out for blood. It would be a disaster for VZW in the
exact area they are aiming for - business. They aren't that dumb...

It is certainly possible that it was an installation error, but it
is also perfectly feasible that since he got a new card AND new
software, he may have the newer version that automatically disables
any network, so it can't be shared... Doesn't really matter what
the older stuff did, it is what the newer stuff they distribute NOW
does... Think of it as similar to say the e815, while Bluetooth DUN
and file transfer worked fine on the older ones, now with the newer
ones, some of the Bluetooth features have been disabled so you have
to pay to transfer ring tones and pictures, unless you do a seem
edit to re-enable what verizon took away.... Can't say for sure
what it is in his case, just a maybe scenario I ran across on
another install... (Had to use the Kyocera kr1 wap/router to share an
aircard over a network) Never say Never (or
in this case nothing to do with).... :) RNess wrote:
And...... Larry's problem has nothing to do with the card itself.
Somehow, something got changed by the wireless manager software
install - and even that is certainly not been proven.

Adding a machine back to a domain can tale an IT person and their
passwords, etc - not just "putting things back".

Me too and no issues. If they are truly permanently killing off
all other network connectivitity then Dewey, Cheatum and Howe is
going to get $13.9 Million real soon.


Latest software. KCP 650 cards...

I have yet to have any of my (Ethernet) network connections
disabled.

You are still using the KCP 650? That isn't even listed on the
verizon website or sold in their stores... Must be way old...
(just found it on a third party site, it is way old...)
