Network Selection; Change Band; Available Networks - Motorola V100 User Manual

Network Selection

To make and receive calls, your Personal Communicator must be registered with one of
the available networks. These can be either GSM900, GSM1800 or combined GSM900/
1800 network types.
Your Personal Communicator automatically searches for the last network used. If this network
is not available, your Personal Communicator attempts to register with a different network.
When your Personal Communicator attempts to register with a different network, it generates
a sorted list of networks. The network list is sorted in the following order:
• The Home network.
• Networks from a preferred list.
• A random list of other networks found above a certain signal strength.
• All remaining networks in descending order of signal strength.

Change Band

This feature lets you select another band. If your Personal Communicator cannot connect to a
network after changing the band, use the Available Networks option.
