    I just bought a new Bell Novatel X950 Turbo-Card and WOW, it it ever fast!! (HSPA). The problem I'm having is that when I log on and hit "CONNECT" it asks me for a password. Simply pressing enter gets me logged on. No password was ever established, nor does it require one to connect. Anyone know how I can stop this prompt? I looked at "preferences", 'tools', EVERYWHERE... can't find it.

    Okay, finally made it through to Bell tech and it is SUPPOSED to be there. The options are for other networks around the world, but not supported by Bell.

    FYI; the new Turbo-Card is WAY more stable and consistent on the Windows XP side of my computer than on the Mac Snow Leopard side. VERY FAST, as it's my primary connection.

    Anyone reading this who might be from the United States, you should see how much we pay up here for internet-stick, iPhone, Data, Blackberry plans... etc...... ($$$$$$$$) X ($$$$.$$$)
