help me get the driver if there is 1 made for vista thanx in advance.

You'd need to check with PCTel for drivers.

Those drivers are up to the manufacturer (PCTel). Some are pushing Vista
drivers out as soon as they can, other manufacturers are going a bit slower.
Some older hardware (modems included) may not get an updated driver.
Although it may not be officially supported in the future, some people may
fix an XP driver to work with it.

You think Vista would have generic drivers for this modem
