Note: The fee for service is
usually higher when you are
roaming (connecting to a
network other than the one
belonging to your service
provider).
Document 2131145. Rev 1.0 May.09
Most service providers have "roaming" agreements with other
service providers, so that they can offer service outside of the
coverage area of their own networks. For example, assuming
you live in Vancouver (Canada), and travel frequently to
Seattle (United States), you can obtain an account with a
Vancouver service provider that has a roaming agreement with
a service provider in Seattle. You would then have local service
in Vancouver, and roaming service in Seattle.
Care and maintenance of your
modem
As with any electronic device, the modem must be handled
with care to ensure reliable operation. Follow these guidelines
in using and storing the modem:
•
Do not apply adhesive labels to the modem or card
adapter. This may cause the modem or card adapter to
become jammed inside the card slot.
•
The modem should fit easily into your ExpressCard/
PC Card slot. Forcing the modem into a slot may damage
connector pins.
•
When inserting or removing the modem, always grip it by
the sides rather than the top (see the drawings on page
•
Protect the card from liquids, dust, and excessive heat.
•
When not installed in your computer, store the modem in
its carry case
