Environment
T-Online web'n'walk Stick IV
HUAWEI Mobile Connect - 3G PC UI Interface (COM4) also known as E176 (Driver Version 2.9.3.0)
Hardware Version: CD25TCPV
T-Mobile Internet Manager 11.301.05.17.55
Situation
Resolution
The problem stems from the T-Mobile software having installed a Windows TDI filter from Huawei Technologies (ewfiltertdidriver.sys) which is situated between Novell's NWDHCP.SYS and the Microsoft TCPIP.SYS stack. The combination of the Novell Client and the Huawei Technologies filter driver is causing the Microsoft TCP/IP stack to crash.
To resolve this problem, eliminate the TDI filter. You can do this in one of two ways:
This also deletes the TDI-Filter file in the Windows directory. A reboot is needed, when ewfiltertdidriver.sys was loaded at boot.
