Connection Status Area

The Connection Status area uses these icons:

Icon

Meaning

The Signal Strength indicator uses bars to

show the intensity of the radio signal. The

number of bars increases as signal

strength increases to a maximum of five

bars.

When the bars are dimmed and the

antenna icon is crossed out, no connection

is possible for one of these reasons:

No antenna is attached

You are outside the CDMA network
coverage area

The signal strength is too weak

A network or account problem is
preventing the AirCard 555 from
obtaining service
