    Hi all,
    I just upgraded my VAIO TXN27N to Windows 7. All things worked fine, but the wireless part. The Novatel wireless Expedite EV-DO Modem (which used to connect with Sprint) did not work. It did not show up under the Modem in the Device Manager (where it should be in).
    I did whatever I could, did not sole this problem. I might not find the right driver or something related with it.

    Any suggestion will be welcome.

    Thank you. :confused:
