The exclusive webConnect Data Plan for the laptop stick allows you
to connect to the Internet through T-Mobile’s Broadband and HotSpot
networks.

Using webConnect for Broadband 3G/2G Access
T-Mobile’s rapidly expanding 3G network provides faster data transfer
rates than 2G (also known as EDGE). If 3G is not available, the
laptop stick will automatically try to find T-Mobile’s 2G network. The
plan also provides global roaming access in many countries where
T-Mobile coverage is available and roaming agreements are in place.
n
Using T-Mobile HotSpot for Wi-Fi Access (Included)
The Connection Manager also allows you to control your connections
to home, work, and public Wi-Fi networks. The included T-Mobile
HotSpot account provides access to Wi-Fi in numerous locations
worldwide. You can access T-Mobile HotSpot at select coffeehouses;
Borders Books and Music; FedEx Kinko’s Office and Print Centers;
Hyatt Hotels and Resorts; Red Roof Inns; airports; select American
Airlines Admirals Clubs; Delta Air Lines Crown Rooms; United
Airlines Red Carpet Clubs; and US Airways Clubs. For a complete
listing of T-Mobile HotSpot locations, at the main Connection
Manager screen click
