Manage profiles

You should not have to create or change a profile, but if the need arises, Watcher

allows you to:

• Create a profile

• Edit a profile

• Delete a profile

• Select a default profile

Profiles contain account information used to establish data connections. At least

one profile must be set up on the modem before you can establish data

connections.

Depending on your carrier, you may have more than one profile on your modem.

If you have multiple profiles, one of them must be set as the default profile. This

profile is used to establish a connection when you click the Connect button

without selecting a profile.

To access profile information:

1. Select

AirCard Watcher > Preferences... > Profiles.
