Hi everybody, I need you help please in providing the right installation cab file for the GPRS/EDGE card Sierra Aircard 775.
I have tried both sources that I know the support section on the forum and the Sierra Wireless web-site to no avail.
The problem with the file downloaded from this forum is that it is installing a crippled version of the 2G Watcher v4.2.0.5. in which some basic functions are missing: setting up a new account, setting the default account, missing "Connections" in the "Tools Menu"
(the first position is wrongly "SMS Express"
, etc.
I have no idea if this is due to the undeveloped version or is it a crippled version due to the install files.
Any confirmation or denial please?
About the other source, the Sierra Wireless web-site, in their archive for AirCard775 in the Folder: /AirCard/AC775/Generic AC775/English the only file appropriate for the HPC2000 it is called E420-Build-0010_HPC2000_DEU.exe
(by name should be the German version
) which is either wrongly "parked" in the English section or wrongly named. Anyway, running it on a WinXP laptop it doesn't produce anything usefull, i.e. by clicking on it, the screen blinks after a few seconds, then nothing.
I checked the French version, this is working all right and is producing the cab file, but that gives the same crippled 2G Watcher
(in French of course
).
It seems that I am out of options, therefore can somebody please provide me the right cab file? Or point me where to get it from?
Btw, both the HPC2000 ActiveSync installation folder coming from this site or from the French version mentioned above include 2 cab files:
1. AirCard 700 Series Handheld PC 2000.HPC2000_2577.cab which the right cab for HPC2000, with the above mentioned drawbacks
2. AirCard 700 Series Handheld PC 2000.HPC2000_4000.cab, which I don't know what it is for - it doesn't install neither on my Jornada, nor on my Nec900c with cmonex v2. Maybe it is the right version of the Watcher, but as long as I cannot install it I cannot tell.
Any idea what is this cab for?
Thanks for any support!
Edit: I have installed the same Watcher 4.2.0.5 version on my Nec900c with cmonex v2
(<E4.2.0-Build-0010_CENET_ARMV4_ENG.CAB> from the Sierra Wireless website
) and this time it is OK, it is complete with all the options, just like the desktop version. There must be something wrong with the HPC2000 installation cabs that I got so far. Maybe somebody here has the correct version for Jornada 720.
