3G Watcher Software (on selected models)

The 3G

(1)

Watcher software application will allow your UltraMobilePC to connect to 3G wire-

less networks normally used by 3G mobile phones. When connected, your UltraMobilePC

can connect to the Internet just like using a wireless network. A shortcut to the 3G Watcher

application will be placed on your desktop. Double-click it to launch the 3G Watcher soft-

ware application.

Launch the 3G Watcher

application and your SIM

card password (PIN1) will be

asked if you have set one.

Once your PIN has been verified, searching for a 3G

network will begin.

Once a 3G network has been discovered, click Connect to

make a wireless network connection.

Once connected, the Connect button will show Disconnect

instead.

Once connected, a message will appear with the network

name.

When you are in an area that prohibits wireless

transmissions (such as on an airplane), you can select

Turn Radio Off from the “Tools” pull down menu.

Once the radio is turned OFF, an “x” will appear over the

signal strength indicator.
