Windows 7: ZTE AC8710 reliance broadband modem incompatible

Dear all,

I am currently using a ZTE AC8710 Reliance Broadband modem to connect to internet. after upgrading to windows 7 home premium, dialer started creating trouble as it is incompatible with windows 7 operating system. I have tried to set the compatibility to Vista Sp2 also. but no use. can any one help me out.

i also have a same problem on reliance zteac 8710.. please help us

Same here. After upgrading to Windows 7, ZTE Reliance modem simply freezes my laptop after connecting for couple of minutes. I am forced to hardboot each time. I just read somewhere problem might be AVG antivirus if you have it installed. Try removing it and reconnecting. Am about to try myself.

me too, I have windows 7 64bit, the zte modem freezes it. Ive done some research and it looks like its a problem with more than just this usb modem. Im going to try uninstalling AVG as well, maybe thats the problem????

I uninstalled AVG, so far so good. it's been a while now with no freeze. mabe that was it after all. what do you think?

Yes, same here. SInce I have uninstalled AVG and installed Avast, have faced no more freezes. AVG is definitely the issue here.
