Back on 30 July 2009 I showed you pictures I had take of the Ericsson W35 on here:

http://blog.marinetelecom.net/2009/07/30/ericsson-w35-unit-pictures-with-a-cheap-web-cam-but-a-real-e-w35/

My web page for information and ordering of the Ericsson W35 is here:

http://www.marinetelecom.net/Ericsson_W35/

The Ericsson W35 is a Mobile Broadband Router (Also Known As: Fixed Wireless Terminal or a Fixed Cellular Terminal.) The Ericsson W25 has been replaced by the Ericsson W35 adding HSUPA (High Speed Uplink Packet Access) to the HSDPA (High Speed Downlink Packet Access) which the W25 has. This basically moves into the 3G+ (3G Plus) realm since it has the full HSPA (High Speed Packet Access) Capability onboard. The Ericsson W25 is no longer available. The Ericsson W35 is the drop-in replacement for the W25. Some users (e.g. Marine, or Mobile, or unique fixed locations) will need external antenna adaptor (Radio Pigtail), Coax Cable (LMR-400 for > 25 Feet), and an External Antenna. Please ask for these things when you order. Ericsson W35 uses a different external antenna connector - make sure that you ask for and get the correct Radio Pigtail Coax Cable Adaptor if you need it. The W25 could receive Faster. The W35 can also send Faster. W35 is the one you want.

The Ericsson W35 - 3G Internet and Cellular Voice Router Now

with High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA) all part of the

High Speed Packet Access Technologies (HSPA). Unlocked -

International Travel Capable - Multi-Cellular Carrier Capable -

Analog Telephone Attachment (ATA) Included. Wireless Access

Point (Sharing 3G Internet via WiFi) Included - 4 Port Fast

Ethernet (Sharing via Wired Networking) Included. I think if

they could have fit the Kitchen Sink in there - it would have been

“included”. This Mobile Broadband Router can go Anywhere.

12vDC. 24vDC. 110vAC. You think of the possibilities! Very

Popular for Marine 3G+ Internet on Sailing and Motor Yachts

(and does voice for the PBX too! [Cell #1 = Ericsson W35].)

Following on the lead of the Ericsson W25.

By Robert McMillan, IDG News Service

A hard-to-detect rootkit may be causing Windows XP systems to crash following Microsoft’s latest security updates.

Windows users began flooding Windows support forums this week, saying that their computers had been rendered unusable with a blue-screen-of-death (BSOD) error after installing Microsoft’s February security updates, released Tuesday. On Thursday, Microsoft stopped shipping the MS10-015 update, which had been linked to the issue, and said it was investigating.

On Friday, Microsoft offered a preliminary conclusion, saying that malicious software may be to blame. “Malware on the system can cause the behavior,” wrote Microsoft spokesman Jerry Bryant on a company blog. “We are not yet ruling out other potential causes at this time and are still investigating.”

“We have confirmed cases where removing malware allows the system to boot,” Bryant said in a Twitter message.

Windows XP user Patrick Barnes said he’d traced the issue to a malicious rootkit program known as TDSS that he found on one of his systems.

Alan’s Note: To my boating and yachting friends and customers - If you have this problem let me know. My consulting and support agreement customers have support for such issues. But I’d like to hear in marine having this problem. Perhaps we can track down the How-To to get rid of the malware or whatever and be able to solve it for others.

Better looking presentation than W25 (you might not want to
hide this one in the Doghouse!) + High Speed Upload which
the W25 did not have.
