Cat Cdma

Is it possible to download a driver for the CAT CDMA dongles? My wife bought a small computer that has no CD ROM to install the driver.

The driver/software should be in the dongle itself, just put the dongle in the usb slot and it should load itself.

It depends on the Dongle. Most new dongles have the software built in, but my older Merlin X720, came with a CD.

If that is the case you can copy the software from the CD to a USB drive or search the net. I downloaded a newer version of the software from the manufactures web site.

Linux comes with drivers built in. So far I have tried 3 different CDMA/3G dongles and all were detected without the need for downloading drivers

Ok thanks, Will try. If not she can take it to a shop and have them install with an external.

In the past I found the updated driver for my CAT dongle online.. I forget where exactly. The manufacturer's updated drive did not work as well for me.
