Using Mobile Broadband with GPS (optional)
Use the information in this section to enable Mobile Broadband and the GPS receiver.
Mobile Broadband access requires an account with a Mobile Broadband network carrier. To
use the GPS receiver, you do not need a network connection or an account with a mobile
broadband network carrier. For more information, see “Mobile Broadband with GPS

WARNING: FAA regulations require that you disable any wireless device when traveling by
air. Failure to disable the wireless device on the tablet while traveling by air can cause
communications problems with aircraft instruments.
Enabling Mobile Broadband with GPS
Before you can establish a Mobile Broadband connection or use the GPS receiver, you must
enable Mobile Broadband with GPS in Motion Dashboard.
Note: Wireless cards consume battery power. To reduce power consumption when running
only on battery power and when Mobile Broadband is not being used, disable Mobile
Broadband and GPS in the Motion Dashboard.

1. Open the Motion Dashboard to the Wireless panel (page 22).
2. Select the Enable Mobile Broadband with GPS check box.
