Determining the Type of Coverage

Powering the card off/on

If you are using your Sprint Mobile Broadband Card in an aircraft, hospital, or other

environment where the radio modem of the card may cause interference, you can

power off the modem (without ejecting the card), and still use other functions of

your notebook computer.

This also allows you to conserve your notebook computer’s battery.

To power off the modem:

1. Close any active data connection (page 45).

2. Select MENU > Power Off Modem.

Tip:

The type of coverage is also displayed in the lower left part of the Device Info

& Diagnostics window under “Network Service” (page 67).
