  • Download the following file: CDMA EV-DO script
  • Copy the "CDMA EV-DO" file into /Library/Modem Scripts on your Mac. (You'll be asked for your password.)
  • Change the modem script you're using from "au CDMA 1x WIN W01K" to "CDMA EV-DO".
  • Try connecting. If you're successful, try running a speed test from someplace like speakeasy.net.
Please post the results here.


This script worked for my 8703e running Blackberry OS 4.2, tethered to my Leopard machine via Bluetooth.

Thanks a ton! \o/
