I am using winrar ver 3.70

When I was trying to unzip the file, an error message 'CRC failed in 3modem unlock \ unlocking software.exe.exe. the file is corrupt'occured

I also tries using 7zip but the same message occurs.

Thanks Barginunter...just ordered one from Littlewoods for £3.73 delivered. It's due to be delivered tomorrow. These 02 modems come as factory unlocked and I've already downloaded the generic firmware from the internet so that any sim can be used. Ordered my 3dongle4free modem last Tuesday and still no sign of it. The first attempt to pay didn't run through (the usual "already validated" message). I had to phone them 3 times - to get the voucher code and to query the "already validated|" status, since I didn't receive the email. Going to have to phone them again after the modem arrives, since they've billed me twice for it (presumably taking payment after the first "already validated" attempt, which they assured me on the phone would not happen). I doubt they'll send me 2, but you never know. Only the second, successful, attempt got through to an order confirmation, although I still didn't receive any confirmation emails.

I just bought this on Littlewoods Direct. Unfortunately the cheap price is no longer available!

I bought it to use in France, because mobile broadband is very expensive there.

Can anyone please advise what software I need to possibly change to a French sim, and how to set it up?

Thanks
