    Hi experts,

    As the title says, is it possible, or if it is not, is there a way around this?

    Usually you can't use them with BSD but I think there are some ways to do that.

    What do you need exactly?

    There is this work around for making Dell Mobile broadband work under Ubuntu. I'm not sure whether it's the driver, but I assume that I need something like that resembles the driver. Do I really need a driver?

    The link shows what I mean. http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/showthread.php?p=1400228...
