Connecting to Verizon

The PinPoint X uses Verizon as an ISP (Internet Service Provider) to connect you
to the Internet.

Steps of a connection:

1. When your PinPoint X is powered on, it automatically searches for cellular
service using CDMA-based cellular technology.
2. Your PinPoint X establishes a PPP (Point to Point Protocol or "dial" up
connection) link to Verizon network, also called registering on the network,
and receives an IP address.
