Setting up Novatel Mifi 2200 on 8.2-REL

[Ryan Coleman]

I have the same image of 8.2 installed in VMware on my MacBook and it found the modem immediately.

Has to be VMware-related as to why it found it because the office network appliance I have cannot see it and only sees the wintel disc partition, right?
