See your Quick Start Guide for details. Your account and coverage area If you purchased the AirCard Data Card from a GSM service provider, you may already have an account and a SIM card. Otherwise, your retailer should be able to give you the names of companies that provide these items. You must have an account with a GSM service provider to use the AirCard Data Card. To use the AirCard Data Card’s 3G capability, your account must be with a service provider that offers HSDPA/ HSUPA or UMTS service. (The AirCard Data Card is backwards compatible with 2G service.) Rev 6 Dec.10 AirCard Data Card User Guide Note: The fee for service is usually higher when you are roaming (connected to a network other than the one belonging to your service provider). When you obtain your account, you are given a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card containing account information. You must insert the SIM card into the AirCard Data Card before you use it. (Depending on your service provider, the SIM card may already be inserted.) When establishing a connection, your AirCard Data Card uses the fastest available service. Your ability to obtain service depends on these factors: • Network coverage — You must be within the network coverage area. • Service provider — If you are within the coverage area of a network that is not operated by your own service provider, you can obtain service only if there is a roaming agreement between your service provider and the network operator. • Account provisions — Your account may restrict your usage to certain networks or limit the amount of time you can use the network. • Frequency band — You cannot connect to networks operating in bands not supported by your AirCard Data Card, regardless of roaming agreements or account provisions. Most service providers have coverage maps on their web sites. AirCard Data Card features LED operation Status LEDs The antenna can be flipped up Modem shown inserted in an to improve reception.
