With some Notebooks we have received reports about freezes if a GPRS connection is used. In this case, the Notebook is not shielded sufficiently against radio interference. Please contact your Notebook´s manufacturere for more information.

To solve this issue, please
a) use an external antenna for GPRS connections, which you can buy from your ExpressCard vendor.
b) set your software to HSDPA/UMTS only so that a HSDPA/UMTS signal is used, event if it is weaker than a GPRS signal
