    My Dell Inspiron came with a built in mobile broadband modem.
    It is set up to default to a TELUS mobil broadband service. I would like to change the provider.

    I have an mobil cell broadband contract with a provider called MOVICEL (in Angola). When my old computer was stolen the MOVICEL card was also taken with it. I want to convert the new computer over to use my MOVICEL service, which just implies directing the mobile broadband modem to call up the local
    cell number that is dedicated to my service. I have this number but can't get beyond the TELUS installation programme in the Inspiron.

    Can you advise me how I can go about installing this other service?
