About Connection Profiles
Before you can connect to a network, you need a
Connection Profile
. A
Connection Profile
is
information that is stored and used by the mobile PhoneTools software whenever it connects the
modem to a network. A connection profile identifies the modem to the service provider and
enables you to access your account.
If your service provider has provided you with one or more predefined connection profiles, you
can simply use one connection profile to connect to a network— the modem will automatically
search for and register with the network defined by the default connection profile. However, if no
connection profile exists, you will need to create one with the
Remote Access
Connection
Wizard
before you can connect to a network.
