What should I do if my computer cannot connect to the wireless WAN?

❑ Make sure the battery pack is installed properly and charged.
❑ Make sure the SIM card is 3G data enabled and activated by your telecom operator. When inserting the SIM card, be sure

to follow the procedure in Inserting a SIM Card

(page 53)

.

❑ Your mobile phone network needs to cover your area. Contact your network provider for information on the network

coverage.

❑ Make sure the WIRELESS switch is on and the WIRELESS indicator light is lit on your computer.
❑ Make sure the switch next to Wireless WAN is set to On in the VAIO Smart Network window.
❑ You may need to manually enter Access Point Name (APN) information in your connection manager software. In such a

case, make sure you have correct APN information from your telecom operator. See the help file included with the
connection manager software for more information.

❑ Check that your connection manager software has detected the wireless WAN modem successfully. It may take some

time for the software to detect the wireless WAN modem.
