using a usb turbo modem

[Simon Ives]

Hi Terry.

I recently purchased a Telstra Turbo modem for work (Sierra Wireless USB
301) and it just works with Ubuntu 10.04 (also on 9.10, haven't tested it on
any other versions).  What is written on the bottom side of the modem and
what Ubuntu version are you using?

Regards.
