Sierra Wireless AirCard 750 & T-Mobile Hack for PowerBook

1999–2004December 29, 2003Macs Only!Apple hardware
If you want to use a PC card in your PowerBook instead of a cell phone to connect to the internet with the highest GPRS speed available by GSM cell techonology, the Sierra Wireless AirCard 750 is the latest. Here is a hack by Michael Diehr to convert the 750 to use on a PowerBook with Mac OS X 10.2.x and 10.3.x, modified drivers, a modified modem script and instructions for connecting with T-Mobile. A $30 commercial 750 driver may be available soon--Stretched Out Software already has AirCard 550 and 555 drivers for the Mac.
