This chapter explains how to verify MC9596-K service on an Global System for Mobile communications (GSM)
wireless network and establish settings.
GSM networks deliver mobile voice and data services, such as Short Message Service (SMS)/Text Messaging,
with full roaming capabilities across the world. High-speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) enabled networks
offer Internet-based content and packet-based data services. This enables services such as internet browsing,
e-mail on the move, powerful visual communications, multimedia messages, and location-based services.
When using the MC9596-K as a phone, services can include speed dialing, call tracking, voice mail, call
forwarding, conference calling, and caller ID, depending on the type of service.
Also use the integrated phone as a modem to connect the MC9596-K to an ISP or work network. The GSM
enabled MC9596-K can connect to the Internet or work network using Cellular Line, or using the modem specified
by the mobile phone service provider.
NOTE Before using an MC9596-K on a wireless network, first select a provider, establish a voice and data-enabled
service plan, and configure the MC9596-K (where applicable). Refer to the MC9500-K Mobile Computer User
