Please see the wireless account Activation Notices located on the MultiModem CD. Choose the one for your
wireless network provider and follow the directions to activate your account.
Phone Numbers for the Wireless Modem

your wireless service provider or it may be on the SIM card or both. Wireless provider implementations may vary.

the card, do the following:
1.
Using your fingernail or a small wedging tool (e.g., a small screwdriver), pry off the SIM cover.
2.
Insert the SIM card into the holder.
3.
Verify that the SIM card fits into the holder properly and then replace the cover.
