14 Section 2A: Installing the Sprint Mobile Broadband Card
Getting Started
Before you can use your Sprint Mobile Broadband Card, you must:
1.
Install the Sprint PCS Connection Manager Software,
located on the installation CD, onto your computer.
2. Insert the card into your computer’s PC slot (Sprint label
facing up). Windows will detect the card and
automatically install the necessary card drivers.
3.
Launch the Sprint PCS Connection Manager Software
application.
4.
Activate your Sprint Mobile Broadband Card and Sprint
PCS account, unless it was preactivated. If your card has
not previously been activated, the Activation Wizard
will automatically launch and guide you through the
process.
Note: Before installing your new software, delete or uninstall any
previously existing modem or dialer software from your
system.
Do not insert the card into the slot until you have installed the
Sprint PCS Connection Manager Software onto your PC or
until instructed to do so by the installation CD.
Note: A driver is software that forms the interface between a device
(such as the Sprint Mobile Broadband Card) and the
operating system on your PC.
