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.

See 

Creating a GPRS Connection Profile

 on page 

14

 for more information about creating a 

GPRS connection profiles.
