Help with wireless/satellite internet

Hi i have satellite/wireless internet modem and was wondering what i need to do to get it set up and working on arch?
All the installation programs are windows based and are stored on the modem itself
Any tips or a wiki guide or tutorial would be a great help
This is the style of modem it is: http://www.telstra.com.au/bigpond_inter … eless.html

Re: Help with wireless/satellite internet

Have you contacted Telstra support to see if they can assist setting up the usb modem in linux? They may have a web page or users may have one with such assistance.  Verizon and Earthlink helped me with mac and linux setup. Good luck.  Enjoy Arch linux.
