Configuring the modem for Packet Data—
without the Disk
If you installed the packet data software on Windows 95, Windows 98, or
Windows NT with the disk, skip this section.
You can configure your modem for iDEN packet data services manually
(that is, without the installation program) for an IBM PC-compatible
computer, an Apple Macintosh computer, or a hand-held computing
device.

Installation Requirements

• An iDEN data modem
• A data cable (PC-compatible or Macintosh)
• An IBM PC-compatible or Macintosh computer, or a hand-held device
with an RS232C serial port
• An active account with your iDEN carrier

If you have been using a wireline modem with your software application,
make sure that the serial (COM) port that you specified in your
communication software is the same port to which the modem is connected.
