Chapter 2 – Activation and Installation
Activating Your Wireless Account
To activate your wireless account, refer to the wireless account Activation Notices included with your unit. Follow
the directions on the notice for your wireless network provider.
Phone Numbers for the Wireless Modem
Every wireless modem has a 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.
Installing the SIM Card (if required)
So that the modem can operate, it requires that you connect the power supply.
If you are operating on a GSM network, the modem also requires a SIM card (Subscriber Identity Module). To
install the SIM:
Using a small Phillips screwdriver, remove the two SIM door screws and remove the SIM door.
1.
Note: When changing a SIM, ensure that power is removed from the unit.
Insert the SIM card into the card holder. The illustration shows the correct SIM card orientation.
2.
Verify that the SIM card fits into the holder properly and then replace the cover.
