Open a Mobile Connection

To browse web pages or collect your email, you need to connect to the Internet.
The Vodafone Mobile Connect software provides two connect buttons to open
such a connection. When you have started the program, these are in the top
left-hand corner of the program window, and are marked "Mobile" and
*
"WLAN ".
Click the "Mobile" connect button to use the data card to open a connection to
the Internet via the mobile phone network. When connected, the heading
above the "Mobile" and "WLAN" buttons will change to "Disconnect". Clicking
the same button again will then close the connection.
To open a mobile connection, you must be within coverage of a mobile
network. As a rule, anywhere you can make a call on your mobile phone, you
should be able to open a data connection with the Vodafone Mobile Connect
software.
Tip:
You can check the quality of the mobile network signal by looking at the
symbol in the bottom left-hand corner of the main program window. The more
bars that are filled in, the better the signal quality.
