The device driver should appear under Modems as Novatel Wireless Expedite EV-DO Modem.

The card should appear under Network adapters as Novatel Wireless Expedite EV-DO Network Adapter (if Network Adapter (NDIS) is enabled).

The card should appear under Ports (COM & LPT) as Novatel Wireless Expedite EV-DO Diagnostics Port (COM#).

The card should appear under Ports (COM & LPT) as Novatel Wireless Expedite EV-DO GPS Port (COM#).

The card should appear under Ports (COM & LPT) as Novatel Wireless Expedite EV-DO Status Port (COM#).

If the listings above do not appear, identify the listing for the card by removing it. This causes the driver listing for the card
