Hi DrDunc,
If the XP machine has an Ethernet NIC then you can plug in via Ethernet. Depending on the FW version you are on, you may need to tap the power button to wake up the Ethernet port. If you are plugged in via USB to PC then the Ethernet port shuts off until USB tethering is no longer happening.
If the XP machine does not have an Ethernet NIC, then try downloading and installing the drivers from the following link: http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/aircard/AC790S_Zain/Driver%20package%204.3.0.0.exe
If you are still having issues then PM your contact details and we can work out a suitable time to troubleshoot whilst you are on-site.
Kind Regards,

The M1 we can buy here in Europe under the model designation MR1100-100EUS are not branded by any Telco. Regardless, there are no firmware downloads (and release notes) available.
Any firmware for Android phones or iOS (by iTunes) are available for download and can be applied to Telco branded as well as devices without SIM lock.

Hi schumaku,
DrDunc's post refers to the Telstra MR1100. Maybe we should get back on topic and help DrDunc out with a solution? You may want to create a new post on your concerns with MR1100-100EUS and documentation.
