1. The Sprint Mobile Broadband does not detect the Novatel Wireless Ovation U727.
There are several reasons why this behavior may occur:
Ovation U727 is not fully inserted into the USB port
Ovation U727 must be fully plugged into the computer’s USB port in order for the
drivers to be installed and for the system to recognize the USB modem.
If the device is plugged in, then proceed with the following.
If necessary, remove and the reinsert Ovation U727 into the USB port.
If the device still is not recognized, remove Ovation U727 and reboot the computer.
Once the computer is booted up, reinsert Ovation U727.
The Ovation U727 drivers are not installed or are incorrectly installed.
Proceed by doing a clean removal and reinstallation of the most current Software.

The drivers should now be correctly installed. In Windows, this can be validated by
checking the Windows Device Manager to make sure there are no exclamation

try to reinstall the drivers manually. Right click on Windows Device Manager entry
that shows the exclamation or question mark. Select Update Driver. The Hardware
Wizard will appear. At first the Wizard may ask to connect to Windows Update server.
Choose No, not at this time and Click Next. Then choose Install from a list or specific
location (Advanced) and click Next. Then choose to Search for the best driver in
these locations and check box Include this location in the search. Then click the
