Your mobile phone network needs to cover your area. Contact your network provider for information on the network
coverage.

Make sure the switch next to

You may need to manually enter Access Point Name (APN) information in your connection manager software. In such a
case, make sure you have correct APN information from your telecom operator. See the help file included with the
