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 105), and then verify that your Mobile Broadband card is enabled by verifying

the setting of the wireless switch.

You can turn your Tablet-PC’s wireless devices on and off with the wireless

switch on the left side of the Tablet-PC (see "Left Side View" on page 32).

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 "Dell Wi-Fi Catcher™ Network Locator" on page 109.

the Wireless network adapter Through Dell QuickSet" on page 105.
