The knowlegable tech at Verizon led me to the correct website (vzam.net) which is the VZAccess Manager Webpage. I downloaded and installed the drivers for Vista and my LG8300.
I still can't connect, so I will call Verizon to see about the VCast Plan, or I may just go for the $59.99 data plan. We only use this service three months in the summer when we're on the road. While at home we have DSL.
Thanks again Mr. W.

. . . to the OP, you need to unistall the MOK, manually install the drivers from the CD and create your own dial up connection on the PC, but this is only good for a few more weeks.
or you can goto the verzion B2B 'buisness' webiste and look for the vista compatible DL music kit, you just need good drivers and a manul connection
with the data plan, vzw will help you step by step and make sure it works, also you will be using the same BB evdo high speed network as the aircard and you can use it for 3 months then turn it off until the next time you need it ( because on the phones voice plan it is a FEATURE and does not require a contract, you already have a contract )
verizon will NOT help you if you try to use the Vcast plan with the PC, when talking to them about the Vcast plan do not mention the PC
once this feature is added to your account verify it by using it to get the news and weather on the phone.
then put the phone in 1x mode, and try the PC hook up.
i have already added this to my account, my 1x is still working but it is not yet nov, the connection should work, its the billing i am wondering about.
verizon is not saying the 1x will not work, they are sating we will be billed by the mega byte of data, testing the Vcast is my way to find out if it will slip under the radar for use with out PER MB billing.
