The AirCard modem as a
network card
The AirCard modem can be configured to provide the
"always‐on" data connection that an Ethernet card or other
wired LAN card provides. That is, you can set options in
Watcher™ (a program that comes with the AirCard modem)
that causes the AirCard modem to establish a network
connection whenever you insert it, assuming GSM, GPRS,
EDGE, UMTS, or HSDPA service is available. Otherwise, you
can configure Watcher to connect only when you click the
Connect button.
The AirCard modem connection provides access to the
Internet. Once the connection is established, you can open your
browser and connect to any web site available on the Internet,
or access other Internet services (such as e‐mail).
