Adding new locations when traveling
By default, the only location setting available to the modem is a location setting for the country or region
in which you purchased the computer. As you travel to different countries or regions, set the internal
modem to a location setting that meets the operating standards of the country or region 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 or region.
CAUTION: To prevent losing your home country or region settings, do not delete your current modem
country or region settings. To enable modem use in other countries or regions while preserving your
home country or region 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 or region you are visiting, select the country or region in which the
computer is located. The modem may not function properly if the correct country or region selection is
not made.

that is not supported by the modem, the Country/region selection for USA or UK is displayed by
default.)

necessary).

country or region as well as in other countries or regions. For example, you could add a setting
named “Work” that includes dialing rules for accessing an outside line.
