Hi Dean.
Just something that came to mind after I'd sent my last message. There is an
accessory you can buy for the three broadband, its called the D100 wireless
router. This allows you to plug in your modem and share wirelessly. With this
device then, you could connect to the internet using any laptop, desktop or
phone with wireless capability. The router needs a single mains connection,
but if your looking for accessibility, this is probably going to be the best
solution as it doesn't require interaction with the three dashboard since
communication with the modem is done through the router firmware. This only
works with huawei as it is they who manufacture this router.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Is it possible to create a small set of scripts for say Jaws or Window Eyes?
Is it something that this solution or a company who control supported
applications like Serotek with System Access could make accessible with a small
effort? I don't have mobile broadband but if I did I'd like to use 3 but I
could always use the WIFI on my phone to connect.

Hi.
That's fine, I know the modem. Yes, the modem uses the new dashboard so
accessibility is out of the window. I'm fortunate enough to have the Huawei
E169G which includes the older more accessible connection manager.

Hi Ibrahim,
There is no name as such on the modem itself except numbers but I will
double check tomorrow when I have it returned to me.
There is however letters which appear on the status bar which may help
and they are Z T E in relation to the product.
Thanks
Tony

Hi Tony.
Can you tell me which modem it is you have? The reason I ask is that
different modems use different connection software. I believe with the latest
modems, the three Birdseye dashboard is used, and this is totally inaccessible.
If you have the three connection manager however, this can be controlled with
shortcuts. I have mobile broadband myself and absolutely love it even if it is
a little slower than a conventional home broadband service. I get 15 gigs of
data allowance for just 15 quid, half price as I've a three contract phone as
well. If you'd prefer to talk to me, please feel free to email me off list and
I'll happily try and help by phone.
All the best, Ibrahim Gucukoglu

Hi Ibrahim,
Thanks for response!
Yes I have 3 Mobile Broadband which basically is more or less mobile
broadband wherever you go in the country.
It's a small USB modem which you just plug in and basically goes
wherever you go if you wish!
Now the problem for me is that when I plug in the modem there is no
way that I can find to activate the broadband.
There is an icon for a sighted person which I believe is 'connect but
my Jaws 8 will not speak that for me.
Now somebody put a shortcut to it for me which worked for a while but
not now!
Now that possibly is another matter, gremlins and that.
So basically I would like to know how to start up the 3 mobile
broadband internet as a screen reader user?
Any suggestions gratefully appreciated.
I don't really want to return the product until I have explored all
avenues.
Oh yes I did contact 3 but they didn't know the answer, sttrangely!
By the way I live in Dublin Ireland but the situation of 3 should be
something the same as UK I reckon.
Tony

Hi Tony.
I'm on three and use their services without difficulty. Please
could you explain what you mean by three mobile? Are you referring to the
mobile broadband or the standard mobile service for making calls, sending text
and multimedia messages etc. I'd oblige you for further information.

Hi all,
I have 3 mobile as a ttrial but I don't think that it is
accessible!
It works when I get on board but to access the to get it going is
a problem without sighted assist.
Anyone ideas on this?
I should say that I'm in Ireland but imagine that the setup
should be something similar in the UK.Tony
