Pt2 - Mobile Broadband for 9.04

[opm595]

Thanks heaps, Barry. I'll keep playing around with it, from the
additional info' you've provided, and post the outcome(s) shortly.
Not sure if NM is going to do anything though because the device (usb
modem) wouldn't detect at all when I first tried connection, but we'll
see how I go. 
Once again, many thanks for the assist.
Regards,
Rob
