T-Mobile USB dongle crashes on Apple

I had a note in from Rachel at The Internet Team this afternoon:

Dear Ewan

My partner recently got a T-Mobile USB HSDPA dongle for his Windows laptop.

I tried the Mac software for this on my Macbook (one of the latest models before they went metal again) but it keeps crashing.

I really want to get one, but canI stop it crashing or are there any alternatives?

Thanks in advance.

Rachel

Well Rachel.. interesting. I actually ended up using the software that came with my 3 USB dongle to power both that and the Vodafone one — I had a similar issue.

Has anyone got some suggestions for Rachel?
