Roam Guard - Sierra Wireless AirCard 595 User Manual

Tip: You can optionally specify which application to automatically launch when
the connection is established. (See "Auto-launch upon network connection"
on page 43.)
You can also set the connection to launch automatically whenever available.
(See "GO automatically when ready" on page 60.) If you also set Sprint PCS
Connection Manager to launch automatically (see "Launch Connection
Manager automatically" on page 58), this can provide an "always-on"
connection, as long as you have network coverage.
You can have a connection established automatically, without running
Sprint PCS Connection Manager—simply by starting whatever application
you want to use (such as your Web browser or email application). For this,
select Enable NIC for data connections and GO automatically when ready
(page 60). However, Sprint PCS Connection Manager and its icon in the
system tray won't be available for you to monitor the status of the
connection.

Roam Guard

The Roam Guard feature, when enabled, displays a warning message if you are
roaming and a data connection is established or about to be established. The
message reminds you that roaming rates may apply.
From the window with the warning message, you can:
Turn off the warning message for this data session only ("Do not ask again
during this data session").
Continue with the data connection ("Roam") (in which case you may be subject
to roaming rates).
End the data connection ("Cancel").
Note: This feature is available only if Roam Mode is set to Automatic (from the
Sprint PCS Vision option of the Settings window; page 59).
