Card came today and installed software but i get error code 619 when i try to connect. I think this is a pc problem as apposed to the connection. I do have a pcmcia wireless lan i use when at home so maybe its conflicting with that comms port. It says it is using comm 16 in the settings but thats where im now out my league.

What you think??

Call the number thats in the 1st post and tell then you have received the card and the sim needs registering.

Thats why you cannot connect because vodafone systems dont know the card.

Just got my card today, do you need to phone to register the sim or is it automatic?

Also, is there any way to stop the vodafone application from disabling my home WLAN - it says it's unsupported and disconnects me, I have to close the Vodafone application to use my home WLAN

Update, yes you do phone to register and the latest application update will allow the home WLAN to connect.

I've done a scan for available phone networks, it finds the three network despite us officially having no coverage and does not find O2 despite us officially having good coverage

Try buying something cheap, eg a battery, then use that receipt number and see if it works
