If you are like me, there comes a time when you need to whip out old tech tools to solve a need. In my case it was Internet access in Hoima, which has MTN and Airtel as useable networks.

I have an old modem, which intially had a data simcard gone bad (that is a story for another day) however it was discontinued in 2012, so there were no drivers for Mac. The installation package terminates with errors so I was stumped.

Step 1 was finding the model which involved opening up the modem as below

Step 2 was to find an installation package, which after about an hour of Googling and reading involved using an Huawei Mobile Partner (https://www.dropbox.com/s/v33lsoe7qok0zsl/MobilePartner-MAC-V200R003B015D16SP00C983.zip?dl=0)

Once installed you can now use your modem readily. Hope this saves someone else some pain…
