Vodafone Mobile Connect USB Modems have been successful at extending broadband 3G to users worldwide. They provide a fast, simple way to access data services on the move, using a laptop computer. The configuration and connection to the network is handled by Vodafone Mobile Connect Lite, a compact software package stored and run from the Vodafone Mobile Connect USB modem.
"The team worked with fluid requirements and changing timescales, whilst delivering on market-critical deadlines."
– Matthew Vizor,
Head of Mobile Connect, Vodafone
Vodafone needed software that was compact and light weight, and that could run direct from storage on the modem itself. As a service for customers, it needed to be easy to use, with much of the configuration automated. The customer should be able to plug it in, straight out of the box and use it almost immediately. The software should connect the PC and modem, and create a data connection to the network.
Vodafone also specified that the software should conform to its own design standards; be easily extendable to future devices; and support customer needs in Vodafone Operating Companies world-wide, in various languages.
