Section 1A: Introducing the Sprint Mobile Broadband Card 5
A Network Card
During Sprint PCS connections, the Sprint Mobile Broadband Card
is a true network card, functioning just like the network cards
familiar to most business computer users. Once installed and
configured for NDIS mode, the card connects instantly to the
CDMA network with just a few mouse clicks. To surf the Web, you
simply insert the card, click a few buttons, and launch your
Internet browser. To access your company network, you may need
to launch an extranet client after you connect to the CDMA
network.

Tip: To optimize your settings for faster speeds and data
conservation when accessing your company network,
work in “Offline”mode and synchronize periodically to
send and receive company email. Do not use the Preview
Pane, and save or drag and drop attachments to a
desktop folder before opening them (rather than
double-clicking them in the email). For more detailed
