+<p>A few days ago, a friend of mine borrowed me a USB mobile modem to
+see if I got it working.  It included a subscription with the Netcom
+mobile phone company here in Norway, with a
+<a href="https://netcom.no/mobiltbredband/fribruk.html:">capped fixed
+prize agreement</a>.  NOK 250,- per month and bandwidth redused from
+up to 2.0 Mbit/s to 200 Kbit/s after downloading more than 5 GB per
+month.</p>
+
+<p>The modem was supposed to work with Linux, which was the reason I
+got it.  I am wondering if I should get such modem myself for use when
+we are in our mountain cabin, and wanted to check it out first.</p>
+
+<p>I first tried to get it working with Debian Lenny, but as the modem
+is the kind that need to change mode from storage device to modem
+device to work (a trick to feed driver into windows boxes without any
+extra driver disk), and the tools to change the mode (usb-modeswitch)
+is missing in Debian Lenny, this was not going to work.
