OT: Help with simple Linux maintenance

[Ez-Aton]

I have had to fake the entire add/remove software for Cellcom cellular 
modem with a tech support until I broke and just asked for the default 
init strings. This was funny. I was "removing the drivers through the 
control panel and through 'add-remove software'", "rebooting" and then 
"reinstalling the drivers" for my Sierra modem. Actually, I ejected the 
PCMCIA card and rmmod'ed the drivers, and then put the card back in. And 
they say Windows is more comfortable... :-/

Just needed init strings so I will not go through the WAP connection. 
Waste of money and capabilities.
