    I have recently purchased Acer Predator D5 USB-C SIM 5G dongle - Screenshot 2023-12-06 at 10.02.37.png for internet. When I connect it to Windows Laptop it has it's own acer software UI and everything works good. On the other hand when I try connecting it to my MacBook Pro M1pro(Silicon chip) it doesn't recognise the device - Screenshot 2023-12-06 at 10.05.48.png and is displayed as "MT65xx Preloader" - Screenshot 2023-12-06 at 10.02.56.png in the network tab of my MAC. So I tried installing Windows 11 through Parrallels and when I plug in the device it doesn't automatically recognize it and is still displayed with missing drivers - Screenshot 2023-12-06 at 10.08.58.png in the Parallels Windows 11 although the acer software starts automatically - Screenshot 2023-12-06 at 10.09.28.png . Once again when attaching it to a Lenovo laptop with Windows 11 the device is recognised in the Device manager as Network Adapter and directly starts working with the Acer Software so I can initiate the connection.

    My question is if there is any way to manually install the drivers within the Parallels Windows 11 or there wouldn't be any chance.

    I have further researched that the USB dongle is powered by MediaTek T700 processor and FIBOCOM FM350-GL (if it has something do to with the drivers).

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
