Thank you.
OK, I know nothing about this stuff, so I'm going to need a more step-by-step guide. I enabled developer mode, typed devel-su, typed the password when prompted, and then typed lsmod. The result of lsmod was a line with the following words: Module Size Used by

Once installed, you'll find it under Settings/System, scroll down and look for 'Utilities'. (I'm assuming you can connect to the net via SIM services).
