    I've got a pair of 31's with the Gobi2000 cards.

    I have installed the Gobi2000 packadge V2.01L15 M00 US and also the
    Panasonic Communication Manager CM-V2.00L11M00.

    The card shows in device manager:

    Under Modems I have:
    -Qualcomm Gobi 2000 HS-USB Mobile Broadband Device 250F
    -Sierra Wireless AirCard HSDPA modem

    Under Network Adapters I have:
    -Qualcomm Gobi 2000 HS-USB Mobile Broadband Device 250F

    Under Ports I have:
    -Qualcomm Gobi 2000 HS-USB Diagnostics 250F (COM5)
    -Qualcomm Gobi 2000 HS-USB NMEA 250F (COM6)

    On the first 31 ( CF-31ACNAA1M ) when I open the Communication manager it says " The currently loaded firmware is not supported by this application"

    On the other 31 ( CF-31ATAAA2M ) it says "no sim inserted" ( I have tried several SIM cards )

    I am in Europe ( The Netherlands ) and want to get these working. I would greatly appreciate any help.

    EDIT: Just got them working I removed the Panasonic Connection manager and installed the
    OneClickInternet_Sierra_20101028_v1.9 manager now they are both up and running. For the GPS I
    use VisualGPS and that works great as well. To think I have spent 4 days on these 31's and now I got it
    done in 20 minutes!

    This stupid CSA app does NOT work in 64 bit windows 7. Only 32 bit. Don't know if that helps at all.

    Scrub that...it's working now.

    Although if you'd used the European software rather then the stuff from the US you'd of been working in about 5 minutes :)
