I can no longer connect to the internet through my LG600. I get an error WMC671 when I click Connect.
I've rebooted, reinstalled VZAccess Manager, Upgraded the device drivers, and used differnet USB ports.
Anyone have any other suggestions?
I'm having the same problem and it just started today (04-27-11)
It appears the problem is nation wide and has been happening all day today - just 4G devices are affected. Here is a Tweet from VZW 30 mins ago...
OMG !!! I'm having the same problem. I've been going crazy trying to fix this darn thing. At least I know it's not just me. I'll keep watching the net to see what's happening.
Thanks,

VZW states the LTE network was fixed today at 8AM PST.
It is now 6/9/11 and I have this problem.
This device has never worked on this Dell.
The Novatel PC770 card works great.
Looking for a fix
Hello gdf451,
Are you still experiencing opportunities with connecting? Have you tried some of the basic troubleshooting as Kcop mentioned above? If so, please PM me your device number and a contact number so I can further assist. Thank you.
The LG VL600 device draws the maximum amount of power through the USB port, which conflicts with Windows power management system. The computer attempts to manage the power of the connection, which causes the WMC671 error that you are receiving. The LG is performing to specification, and it is drawing an approved amount of power through the USB port, but the computer system is cutting and managing power in an attempt to extend the battery life of the laptop. To resolve this error code, please making the following adjustments to the computer:
1. Go to the Control Panel in Windows. You may access this by going to: Start > Settings > Control Panel.
2. Make sure you are in "Classic View" as opposed to "Category View" and select "Device Manager".
3. Scroll on down to the "Universal Serial Bus Controllers", expand the category and look for any "USB Root Hubs".
4. Right click each "USB Root Hub" and select "Properties"
5. Click the "Power Management" tab at the top of the new window.
6. Uncheck the "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power." check box.
7. Save, exit, close out of Device Manager and remove the USB modem.
8. Reboot the computer, plug the modem back in, and access the internet.
Sadly, changing the USB Root Hub settings, does not fix the issue. I have this issue on and off. I will not be able to connect for a hour or so, then I can connect.
This error is a little annoying as there seems to be no reason that I know of. Reinstall software does not help, changing the USB settings does not help.
Makes me wonder if it is A) The device or Or Network issues.
Yes last time this happened I spent 4 hrs installing/unplugging/rebooting etc. Later I find it was "regional" 4G outage. It is not a USB power supply issue. When the error occurs I get it on all 3 of my computers (2pc's and 1 laptop). I don't know how support does not know this? I also rec'd the error on Dec 7 (the nationwide outtage).
Receiving error code today and had trouble maintaining connection last night and this AM. Anyone want to bet that another "regional" outage? The topper is I don't have 4G service available but was forced to upgrade to 4G compatible modem. The old 3G worked great! I have continuous disconnects/lags etc with this new 600 modem and have it locked to a 3G connection. So even though I have 3G I still get problems when the 4G goes down. I have heard many have opted to purchase the UML 190 and the connection stabilized significantly. You can get lucky and find them on Ebay.
Bingo!

You still think it a pc power management problem??
I agree. I tried the modem in my desktop and laptop and in all usp ports with no luck. tried again thisevening around 18:00hrs and it hooked right up. time will tell if I stay with verizon........depends on frequency of outages. Thank you for your insight.
