Have you contacted iHug to get them to load the MAC address of your sm200d card
(your MAC address is 00:90:BC:01:51:F3) onto your account?

This has caught a few linux installs out, as usually the Windows Installer dude
will call iHug to get this enabled, but when you do it yourself with Linux, you
have to call them and theres no paperwork or instructions to tell you this.

Without the correct MAC address loaded into iHug's system, you won't receive any
incoming packets (although you will be able to send packets out). As these are
your symptoms, I susepct this may be the problem.

Rgds,
Pete
