Adding new locations when traveling
By default, the only location setting available to the modem is a location setting for the country in
which you purchased the computer. As you travel to different countries, set the internal modem to a
location setting that meets the operating standards of the country in which you are using the modem.
As you add new location settings, they are saved by the computer so that you can switch among
settings at any time. You can add multiple location settings for any country.
CAUTION:
To prevent losing your home country settings, do not delete your current modem country
settings. To enable modem use in other countries while preserving your home country configuration,
add a new configuration for each location in which you will use the modem.
CAUTION:
To prevent configuring the modem in a way that violates the telecommunications
regulations and laws of the country you are visiting, select the country in which the computer is
located. The modem may not function properly if the correct country selection is not made.
