Purchased package from orange unable to start on lap top it requires pin number?(£25month)
I have spent hours on telephone spoken to many people from orange including technical departments most of them do not know what a 3g card is, been passed on to laptop manufacture who can not help.
Have I entered a secret society where nobody can answer a question i do now know how Victor Meldrew must have felt,or perhaps hes just a figment of my imagination.
Hope somebody can help me befor the gun comes out?

have you tried any pin numbers? The default pin for all orange sims is 1111, not heard of these asking for pins but it's worth a go. If this doesn't work I'd try re-installing. One thing as well, you need to have the internet link product in css (an orange system) for these devices to work. this gets missed off. a lot.

A little of topic but any-hoo...

Can these be unlocked and used with a PAYG data plan from t-mob or 3?

|Also, could you point me in the right direction for more info pease, I cant find anything about it on the orange site.
