Netgear purchased the Sierra Aircard assets in April 2013.
And guess what
Netgear did just before Christmas 2013 break?  

They took the Sierra licensing server offline in order to migrate it to a Netgear server.  Thus breaking the Telstra Sierra Aircards we use.

The supplied workaround?  Download the latest Aircard software from Netgear.
