Using an external antenna

To attach the external antenna:
1. Remove the USB modem from your computer.
2. Flip open the unlabeled tab (on the side of the modem).
3. Holding the antenna cable by the connector (end) part,
carefully push the connector part of the cable into the
corresponding connector on the modem.
4. Carefully insert the USB modem into your computer’s USB
slot.
