forget where I dowload the driver still have it but right now I am
3 weeks in china after come back home I can e-mail you the driver.

But on our server I replaced the modem by external type because
the intel driver sometimes gives a kernel panic

That's a good solution.

Kernel modules are kernel version specific. Whenever the kernel is upgraded to a new version you will always need to install new versions of all add-on kernel modules.
