3. Give the account representative your ESN (Electronic Serial Number) or MEID

(Mobile Equipment IDentifier) number as displayed by the Activation Wizard.

Enter the activation code provided by the account representative and

click Next.

4. Enter the phone number (no spaces or hyphens) and, if not the same value as

the phone number, the MSID value given by the account representative, and

then click Next.

A confirmation window will be displayed.

5. Confirm with the service representative that the information is correct. If it is,

click Ye s. If it isn't, click No, and re-enter the information.

6. Click Finish to close the Activation Wizard.

7. Wait a few moments for the Sprint Mobile Broadband Card to automatically

reset. Depending on your configuration, an IOTA session may automatically

start (“Data Provisioning [IOTA],” below).

After Sprint sets up your account on the network, your Sprint Mobile Broadband

Card should be configured and ready for use.

Data Provisioning (IOTA)

IOTA (Internet Over The Air), supported by some service providers (including

Sprint), is an automated feature to perform account setup for you by making a

connection to the CDMA network and using a secure Internet connection to

download account parameters to your Sprint Mobile Broadband Card. To make

this secure connection, IOTA requires that your computer support 128-bit

encryption. (See “High Encryption Requirements” on page 9.)

Depending on your configuration, the first time Sprint PCS Connection Manager

detects the activated card, an IOTA session may automatically start, during which

status messages (“Updating User Profile…”) are displayed.

After this first activation, there may be changes to your account that require

updating the parameters in the Sprint Mobile Broadband Card. If this is needed:

1. In the Device Info & Diagnostics window (page 66), click Update Data Profile.

(If this button is not displayed, eject and reinsert the card.)

2. In the IOTA Provisioning window, click Ye s.

Your Sprint Mobile Broadband Card then retrieves the updates to your data

services account.

Once the updates are successful, Sprint PCS Connection Manager is displayed

(“Disconnected”). You can now connect to the network.
