Adding New Locations When Traveling

The internal modem is configured to meet only the operating
standards in the country where you purchased the notebook.
When traveling internationally, you can add new location
configurations that comply with standards in other countries.
Ä
CAUTION: Do not delete your current modem country settings. To
enable modem use in other countries while preserving your home
country configuration, add a new configuration for each location in
which you will use the modem.
The drop-down lists described below may include countries not
supported by the modem. Unless you select a supported country,
the country selection will default to USA or UK.
Ä
CAUTION: Selecting a country other than the one in which it is located
may cause your modem to be configured in a way that violates the
telecommunications regulations/laws of that country. In addition, your
modem may not function properly if the correct country selection is not
made.
