By some miracle, is there anyone from support or on this list that can verify whether the aforementioned modem works with Vodafone NZ?

The modem seems to working okay on a fresh install of Windows XP (SP1) and the query response is

But no go ... When trying issuing 'AT+CGDONT="1","IP","live.vodafone.com"' in Hyperterminal it responses with 'ERROR'. Throwing a 'AT+CEER' at it I get '+CEER: Error 226' which according to reference documents means "NWK requested detach". Obviously someone doesn't want to play nicely (or make my life easier).

Lately (after uninstalling modem, reinstalling modem, etc) NowSMS started spitting back with a "Unable to initialize modem: Error 800000018 from liveGetID" message.

Logs provides no joy. SMSDEBUG is

MMSWAPDEBUG is empty.

Looking for a shoulder to cry on,

Just found this post http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/23045.html on the LineGetID issues.

Unfortunately I need to be able to send and receive SMS and MMS. The LineGetID issue is erratic though, sometimes it pops up other times NowSMS is 'happy as larry'.
