 Device Activation Overview
 Activation Wizard Tutorial
M600A Mobile Broadband Module
Device Activation Overview
Some Sprint Mobile Broadband devices may require activation (programming) prior to
use. If your device needs such an action, Sprint Smart View will inform you and start the
activation process when you connect the device. Although the activation process will vary
depending on the make, model and firmware version of your device, all activations fall
into one of the following categories:

Hands-Free Activation
Sprint Smart View will simply inform you that it is activating your device and periodically
give you updates about activation status. No intervention is required on your part.

One-Touch Activation
Sprint Smart View will display a popup window that indicates that your device requires
activation/programming and asks you if you would like to activate/program the device
now. Click Yes to activate your device.
If you choose to cancel activation at this time (by clicking No), you can restart activation
by disconnecting the device from your computer and then attaching it again. One-Touch
Activation can also be restarted by selecting Activate Device from the Tools menu, or by
clicking the Activate Device button on the Mobile Settings Page, depending on your device.

Activation Wizard
For some devices, Sprint Smart View will display an “activation wizard” when the device
is connected. Although such devices require a few more steps to activate than those that
use the techniques mentioned above, the wizard provides clear, step-by-step instructions
to guide you through the process.
Although you have the option to cancel the activation process at any time, you will not
be able to use the device for data connections until it has been successfully activated. To
restart activation after you have cancelled, just disconnect your device from your
computer and then attach it again. The activation Wizard is accessible from the Tools
menu by selecting "Activate Device". Anytime there are problems with your connection,
or for new service, you can go through this wizard. You may need a Social Security
number, Tax ID number, Billing address and/or driver's License number.
See the Activation Wizard Tutorial for more information.
M600A Mobile Broadband Module

Manually Connecting to the Sprint Mobile Broadband
Network
Before you begin, you will need the following:

A 3G or 4G Sprint Mobile Broadband device that you will use to establish
connections. Windows device drivers for this device must be properly installed
according to the manufacturer's instructions and the device must be selected in
the Hardware tab of Sprint Smart View 's Settings window.

A valid Sprint Mobile Broadband account.

A network profile configured to access the Sprint network (Sprint SmartView
creates these automatically when you connect a supported Sprint Mobile
Broadband device).
Follow these steps to connect to a Mobile Broadband Network:
1.
If you have not already done so, connect the device that you wish to use. Sprint
Smart View will begin searching for an available network.
2.
If you want to switch from 3G to 4G (or vice versa), click Switch to 3G (or 4G).
Note that if you have a single device that supports both 3G and 4G connections rather
than two separate devices, there will be a few seconds delay while the device switches
modes.
3.
When Sprint Smart View is ready, the connection status text on the Mobile Control
Panel will display "Ready:" followed by the name of the network that has been selected.
Click Connect to establish a connection.
Note: If you are using a GSM Mobile Broadband device for international roaming,
clicking the arrow on the right side of the Connection Status Indicator produces a menu
listing all GSM network profiles. Clicking this button produces a menu listing all GSM
network profiles. You can establish a connection using any profile listed simply by

3G Bearer Types
The bearer types described below are available for 3G connections.
CDMA Bearer Types (Used for Domestic 3G Connections)
CDMA bearer types include the following (from fastest to slowest):
 EVDO REV A
Revision A of the EVDO protocol supports download speeds of up to 3.1 megabits per
second.
 EVDV
EVDV (Evolution-Data/Voice) is a bearer type for 3G CDMA networks that supports
downloads speeds of up to 3.1 megabits per second.
 EVDO
EVDO (Evolution-Data Optimized) revision 0 is a bearer type for 3G CDMA networks that
supports download speeds of up to 2.4 megabits per second.
 1xRTT
1xRTT (1 times Radio Transmission Technology) is the most basic bearer type for 3G
CMDA networks. It is usually limited to download speeds of 144 kilobits per second.
Because of its limited (slower) nature, it is sometimes referred to as a 2.5G technology.
 QNC
QNC (Quick Net Connect) is a 2G bearer type. As one of the earliest protocols for
transmitting digital data over CDMA networks, it is capable only of relatively slow
download speeds of 14.4 kilobits per second.
22
M600A Mobile Broadband Module
GSM Bearer Types (Used for International Roaming)
GSM Bearer types include the following:
 HSUPA and HSDPA
HSUPA (High Speed Upload Packet Access) and HSDPA (High Speed Download Packet
Access) are the upload and download components of the HSPA protocol suite. If your
device reports that it is using one of these, the other is almost certainly being used as
well. These are fast 3G bearer types that directly compete with fast CDMA bearer types
like EVDO and may eventually reach speeds comparable to 4G.
 UMTS
UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) may refer to a number of 3G
technologies, including HSPDA and HSUPA at the faster end as well as a few other 3G
technologies that might be slightly slower.
 EDGE
EDGE (Enhanced Data rates for GSM Evolution) is a 3G bearer type whose maximum
download speed in the vicinity of 200 kilobits per second, depending on network
configuration.
 GPRS
GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) is a 2.5G bearer type for GSM networks. It's
limited to a maximum download speed of around 60 or 80 kilobits per second, depending
on network configuration.
Mobile Info Window
To view information about your mobile broadband device or your current mobile
broadband connection (if any), select Mobile Info from the Tools menu. The Mobile Info
window will appear providing useful information on your computer and your Mobile

launcher with.
Special Cases
Internet Explorer and VPN client software are special cases. Although you can add either
Internet Explorer or a VPN client to the list of launched applications here, it is not the
easiest or the most flexible way to launch these applications.

Each network profile has a dedicated setting that specifies whether Internet
Explorer should be launched upon successful connection. See Edit Network
Profile: General properties for more information.

Sprint Smart View includes a dedicated interface for configuring and launching
VPN clients. You must use this interface if you wish to take advantage of the
enhanced VPN functions provided by the Sprint Smart View software. See
Automatically launching a VPN connection for more information.
Changing the Order in Which Applications Are Launched
The order in which applications are launched is controlled by the amount of launch delay
28
M600A Mobile Broadband Module

enabling and disabling the acceleration feature. The group of settings marked
Acceleration Level configures the amount of acceleration used. See the following topics
for more information.
 Enabling and Disabling Data Acceleration
 Configuring Acceleration Levels
32
M600A Mobile Broadband Module
Note: Data compression is in effect only when Sprint Smart View is connected to a
network that supports it and has successfully negotiated a session with that network's
data acceleration server. Also, it is not currently supported on 64-bit Windows Vista
systems.
Settings: App Launcher
Applications listed in the App Launcher settings tab will appear in the Application Launch
Menu. In addition to adding and removing applications from the list, you can specify
whether each application will be automatically launched when you connect and how
Sprint Smart View should respond when a particular application is shut down.
 Adding an application to the list
 Editing the parameters for an application in the list

Settings: Client
The Client tab contains general settings for the Sprint Smart View software. The
following options are available:
User interface is always on top
When this box is checked, Sprint Smart View will always appear on top of other
application windows.
Enable splash screen
If this box is checked, Sprint Smart View displays a splash screen while it starts up.
Automatically run this application on machine startup
When this box is checked, Sprint Smart View will be launched automatically each time
33
M600A Mobile Broadband Module
you start your computer.
Display connection timer
This box controls whether the connection timer will be displayed in the main window.
When the box is checked (default), the timer will be displayed. When the box is
unchecked, the timer will not be displayed.
Use this as my default Wi-Fi management utility
This box enables and disables Sprint Smart View's Wi-Fi capabilities. When this box is
not checked, Wi-Fi functionality is disabled and does not appear in the Sprint Smart View
user interface. This is useful if you have another Wi-Fi management utility that you
would rather use instead of Sprint Smart View.
Start in System tray
This setting works with the "Automatically run this application on machine startup"
setting. When the "Automatically run this application on machine startup" check box is
checked and this check box is checked, Sprint Smart View will automatically start
minimized to the System tray each time you start your computer. If the "Automatically
run this application on machine startup" check box is not checked, this setting does
nothing.
Transparency
This menu allows you to increase the transparency of Sprint Smart View’s main window.
Zoom
This menu lets you stretch the main user interface up to twice its default size.
Reset all warning messages
Sprint Smart View provides various warning messages that can be disabled if you do not
want to see them (typically, this involves checking a "Do not show me this message
again" box). You can turn all of these warning messages back on by clicking the Reset
button.
Settings: Hardware
The Hardware tab is used to configure hardware-related settings for establishing
connections. The following items can be found on this tab:
34
M600A Mobile Broadband Module
The Device List
This four-column table takes up most of the tab's area. It is a list of all the devices
connected to your computer that may be used to establish network connections. From
the device list, you can:
 Enable and disable individual devices.
 Choose from multiple devices of the same type.
 Configure extended properties for mobile broadband devices.
 Change other settings and functions for connected devices.
For more information, see The Device List.
Device Priority
If there are two or more devices within a technology type and Automatic is selected in
the Selection column, the devices within that technology type can be reordered to
specify priority. The first device within a technology type has the highest priority for that
technology type. Use the Up and Down buttons, located below the Device List, to change
the order in which the devices are listed within their technology type.
Allow simultaneous connections
If this box is checked, Sprint Smart View will allow you to establish more than one
connection at a time. (For example, you could be connected to both WiFi and Mobile
Broadband concurrently.)
If this box is NOT checked, Sprint Smart View will prompt you to disconnect before
allowing you to establish a second connection.
Note: Some VPN connections, such as those established with the Checkpoint VPN client,
may be seen as separate connections by the Sprint Smart View software. If the Allow
simultaneous connections box is NOT checked, you may see a "Multiple Connections Not
Allowed" error message if you try to make such a VPN connection.
Prompt before switching connections
When in automatic connection mode, the Sprint Smart View software can automatically
switch to a higher priority network if one becomes available. However, since the original
connection is shut down once the new connection is fully established, this has the
potential to disrupt any activity that was relying on the original connection.
If this box is checked, Sprint Smart View will prompt you for permission to switch
networks before it actually does so.
35
M600A Mobile Broadband Module
CDMA/WiMAX Dual-Mode Settings (Dual-Mode Devices Only)
These settings appear only if your mobile broadband device supports both CDMA and
WiMAX. Use these settings to specify when the Sprint Smart View software will switch
the device from WiMAX mode to CMDA mode. There are two options:
 Automatic — Whenever you connect your Mobile Broadband device, the Sprint
Smart View software will switch the device to WiMAX mode. If you fail to
connect via WiMAX, the software will switch the device to CDMA mode.
 CDMA Only — The Sprint Smart View software will leave the device in CDMA
mode at all times.
A third option, WiMAX Only, is not available at this time.
Profiles
Click this button to open the ‘The Network Profiles Window’.
Settings: Location/GPS
The Location/GPS tab in the settings window configures Sprint Smart View's ability to
locate nearby restaurants, banks, hotels etc., using the Global Positioning System (GPS)

can be found here:
Disable GPS on Device
Checking this box disables GPS on your mobile broadband device and removes all GPSrelated menu items and buttons from Sprint Smart View's user interface.
Do not show Privacy Consent Agreement for...
Checking any of these three items suppresses the display of the corresponding Privacy
Consent Agreement. The first two of the privacy consent agreements listed in this space
appear the first time you attempt to use GPS. You must accept both of these agreements
in order to use any of Sprint Smart View's GPS functions. The third privacy consent
agreement appears when you click the GPS indicator to turn it yellow. You must accept
this agreement if you wish to use your GPS Receiver with third-party GPS applications
Note that an indication of whether you have accepted each of these agreements is
immediately to the right.
Automatically start GPS when a CDMA connection is established
36
M600A Mobile Broadband Module
If this box is checked, Sprint Smart View will begin acquiring GPS data automatically
whenever you successfully connect to a CDMA mobile broadband network.
Mapping Service Default

found below.
** Descriptions for GPS Data Fields
GPS Port
The next available NMEA port available for use by a GPS application. Some applications
require that you enter this port number prior to using them.
Heading
The approximate direction in which you are moving. Compass headings range from 0
degrees (due north) to 360 degrees, with 90 being due east, 180 due south, and 270
degrees due west.
Speed
An estimate of the speed at which you are moving.
Latitude
Your current latitude, expressed in degrees and rounded to four decimal places. Positive
numbers indicate north latitude from 0 to 90 degrees. Negative numbers indicate south
37
M600A Mobile Broadband Module
latitude from 0 to 90 degrees. In either case, 0 is the equator and 90 is the latitude of
the polar region.
Longitude
Your current longitude, expressed in degrees and rounded to four decimal places.
Longitude 0 is at the prime meridian, which passes through Greenwich, England. Positive
numbers up to 180 indicate locations east of that location. Negative numbers to -180
indicate locations west of the prime meridian.
HEPE
Horizontal Estimated Position Error. This is a measure of the accuracy of your calculated
position. So, if the HEPE is 43 feet, you could be as much as 43 feet from the
coordinates indicated by your device’s GPS receiver.
Satellites
The number of satellites your GPS receiver has acquired. At least 3 are required to
provide latitude and longitude. At least 4 are required to provide an altitude. Additional
satellites provide greater accuracy (7 or more is considered excellent).
Last Fix
The date and time that your GPS receiver was last able to update its location data.
Altitude
Your current altitude above sea level(in feet). Note that because of the inherent
difficultly in determining altitude via GPS, the margin of error for altitude may be
somewhat larger than the HEPE (the margin of error for latitude and longitude).
Settings: Sounds
The Sounds tab allows you to configure Sprint Smart View to play a sound when various
events occur. You can also specify the sounds that Sprint Smart View plays. To enable
this feature, check the Enable sounds box. Once the feature is enabled, checking the

Application Launch Issues
Application is not visible after launch
Sprint Smart View is designed to open in the display state from which it was last exited.
As such, it is possible that Sprint Smart View will launch directly to its minimized state,
causing you to assume that it is not running.
Resolution — Look for a minimized Sprint Smart View in the Windows taskbar. If Sprint
Smart View is present, just click on it to return it to its normal state.
Auto launching of Sprint Smart View at Startup
Sprint Smart View installation can be configured to allow the application to automatically
launch when a computer boots up or when a new user logs into the machine. This may
(or may not) be the way you prefer it to behave.
Resolution — You can access the setting that controls this behavior by selecting
Settings from the Tools menu and then choosing the Client tab. Check (or uncheck) the
Automatically run this application on machine startup box to specify whether Sprint
Smart View should be automatically launched.
Windows XP’s native Wi-Fi management is shut down at startup
This behavior is intentional. Sprint Smart View provides significantly more powerful Wi-Fi
management than XP’s native Wi-Fi engine. However, if you prefer XP’s native tool, you
can disable Sprint Smart View’s Wi-Fi management entirely. See Zero Config Wi-Fi for
more information.
