The Vodafone Escape Route

http://www.vodafone.nl/Vodafone/wg20/software/VodafoneMCInstaller.2.11.02.00.dmg.zip http://help.vodafone.nl/cgi-bin/consumer_help_nl.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=859&p_created=1224506257&p_sid=K-XHt9nj&p_accessibility=0&p_redirect=&p_lva=&p_sp=cF9zcmNoPTEmcF9zb3J0X2J5PSZwX2dyaWRzb3J0PSZwX3Jvd19jbnQ9MTMsMTMmcF9wcm9kcz0mcF9jYXRzPSZwX3B2PSZwX2N2PSZwX3BhZ2U9MSZwX3NlYXJjaF90ZXh0PU1vYmlsZSBDb25uZWN0&p_li=&p_topview=1&cat_lvl1=32&cat_lvl2=

The Windows Vista software needs to be downloaded separately, preferably BEFORE inserting the device for the first time. The software that's on the 'virtual CD-ROM' does not work on Windows Vista.

To obtain the latest version of the software, visit http://www.vodafone.nl/zakelijk/mobiel_werken/Mobiel_werken_met_laptop/Support/Algemeen, but you can also download a local copy (from within Nikhef) from http://www.nikhef.nl/grid/ndpf/files/VodafoneMC/.

Then:

  • install the software (with Administrative rights)
  • plug in the USB modem
  • launch the Vodafone Mobile Connect tool and wait for the device to be recognised by Windows
  • in the Main window, press "Connect"

Note that the connection only does IPv4, no IPv6, and that you get a private 10.x.x.x address with NAT. But it's sufficient to create the VPN tunnel back to schrepel.
