Enabling/Disabling the Dell™ Mobile Broadband Card
NOTE:
If you are unable to connect to a Mobile Broadband network, ensure that
you have all the components for establishing a Mobile Broadband connection (see
"What You Need to Establish a Mobile Broadband Network Connection" on page 68),
and then verify that your Mobile Broadband card is enabled by verifying the setting
of the wireless switch.
You can turn your Mobile Broadband card on and off using the wireless switch
on your computer.
You can turn your computer’s wireless devices on and off with the wireless
switch on the left side of the computer (see "Left Side View" on page 25).
If the switch is in the "on" position, move the switch to the "off" position to
disable the switch and the Mobile Broadband card. If the switch is in the "off"
position, move the switch to the "on" position to enable the switch and the Dell
Mobile Broadband card. For information about the wireless switch positions, see
"wireless switch" on page 26.

Managing Your Network Settings Through the Dell QuickSet Location
Profiler
The Dell QuickSet Location Profiler helps you manage network settings that
correspond to your computer’s physical location. It includes two categories of
profile settings:
• Location Profile Settings
• General Mobility Settings
You can use Location Profile Settings to create profiles for accessing the
Internet with your computer in your office, home, or other public places with
Internet services.
General Mobility Settings allows you to change the way
network connections are handled. The profiles consist of different network
settings and equipment that you need when using your computer in different
locations.
