Using Your Phone as a Modem

With Sprint PCS Vision, you can use your phone as a modem.
You’ll be able to send and receive email, browse the Internet,
and access your company’s network anywhere on the
Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.

Setting Up a Data Connection With Your PC

In order to use your phone as a modem, you’ll first need to
load the Sprint PCS® Connection Manager Software on your
PC, and then use a USB cable (not included) to connect your
phone to your PC.

To set up your phone-to-PC data connection:

1.

From your computer’s traditional Internet connection,
go to www.sprint.com/downloads, select your
computer’s operating system, and download the
“Sprint PCS Connection Manager for Phone as
Modem/USB Cables.”(The software and drivers can be
downloaded free of charge.)

2.

Double-click the downloaded file and follow the
onscreen instructions to install the Sprint PCS
Connection Manager software and drivers to your PC.

3.

Once the software has been fully installed, connect your
phone to your PC using a USB cable. (Your PC will detect
the connection and an icon will appear in your system
tray.)

Note:

To use this service, you are required to sign up on a Sprint PCS
Vision with Phone as Modem plan. Go to

www.sprint.com

or

visit a Sprint Store for Phone as Modem plan details and more
