Broken Link in wiki

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
The link worked for me in Firefox.

I seem to remember Huawei dongle being a real pain to set-up.  Do you
have an ethernet connection to download extra packages?  I vaguely
remember having to install wvdial (or something) and tons of
dependancies on a machine with no other internet connection.

The main trick seemed to be to use usb-modeswitch or else just unmount
the storage part of the device yourself.  For some reason dongles seem
to assume the main reason for having a wireless dongle is to use it as
a storage device.  On Windows that makes some sense because the
storage part contains the Window-only drivers.  [sighs deeply and
avoids the rant]

Regards from
Tom :)
