Re: Persistent 3G connection fails, not sure why

(This thought was furthered by the fact that the USB modem in question is one that modeswitches, so it does have internal storage. Am I wrong in this assumption?)

The hard disk complaint actually only occurs at the same time as a network drop. I assumed they were somehow related to the 3G issue, because this occurs on several machines, each with identical hardware and disk image.

Hi David,
       I'd be looking at why the hard disk is complaining first, the connection
problem may be an unlikely consequence of failing hardware.

Best regards,
