Chapter 2 – Activation and Installation

Activating Your Wireless Account

Some Multi-Tech cellular modems have been pre-configured to operate on a specific cellular network, such as
Sprint and Verizon Wireless.
However, before you can begin to use the modem, you must set up a cellular data account with your cellular
network provider. Refer to Multi-Tech's Cellular Activation website http://www.multitech.com/activation.go for
information on activating your cellular modem.
Phone Numbers for the Wireless Modem
Every wireless modem will have its own unique phone number. The phone number may simply be given to you
by your wireless service provider or it may be on the SIM card or both. Wireless provider implementations may
vary.

Inserting the SIM Card into the Holder

The wireless MultiModem requires the power supply connection to begin operation. It also requires a SIM card
(Subscriber Identity Module) to operate on a GSM network.
To install the modem:
Using your fingernail or a small wedging tool (e.g., a small screwdriver), pry off the SIM cover.
1.
Insert the SIM card into the holder.
2.
Verify that the SIM card fits into the holder properly and then replace the cover.
