Send a message to Kazade and he can tell you. From what ive seen with so far on this forum people who arent using the dell nw147 modem have tons of hassles trying to get setup. If you want an easy plug anf play setup get a dell nw147, they really are not that expensive :)

That's it. You can get the Lenovo branded one cheaper though.

Go with the Lenovo one. I've tested two of them myself. They work perfectly. It's the exact same modem with a different brand name. I'm the guy that recommended the Dell one originally so you can trust me! :lol:
