    Hello,
    Recently i bought one dell D420. Then i bought the Dell 5505 Broadband modem and installed the drivers that seller advised me. I had many types of problems but then i did Windows fresh install and now it is almost fully working.
    It does recognize my modem, install, i open the utility, enter the pin, i connect to the internet and then after a minute of so the device somehow is "unpluged" from my system and i get an error saying " USB Isn't recognized " and my connection ends . Since i had different problems with different drivers, maybe i am not installing the correct ones
    Fist i had this one.
    Then this one,
    Still with problems, why the hell i get an USB error when the modem is connected in a COM port?
    Thank you in advance.

    I now managed to get it working but sometimes, i still get an error saying " USB Not Recognized " and the connection breaks.
    Does anyone have any idea why i get usb errors with an internal modem?
    Thank you.
