coverage area
• AirCard software
• Before you can begin
using the AirCard
• Package contents
Caution: Do not insert your
AirCard into your PC Card slot
before installing the software.
AirCard 800 Series wireless
network cards
The AirCard 800 Series 3G wireless network cards are accessories for your PC that allow you to connect to the Internet,
send and receive e-mail, connect to a corporate network/VPN,
or view streaming video, without the need of a network cable
or phone line.
The AirCard fits into the standard (Type II) PC Card slot
available on most notebook PCs.
Supported operating systems
The AirCard wireless network cards work in:
•
Notebook PCs running Windows 98 SE, NT 4.0, 2000, Me,
and XP. (See Chapter 3 for more details.)
The AirCard as a network card
The AirCard 800 Series network cards can be configured to
provide the “always-on” data connection that an Ethernet card
or other wired LAN card provides. That is, you can set options
in Watcher™ (a program that comes with the AirCard) that
will cause the AirCard to establish a network connection
whenever you insert it, assuming GSM, GPRS, EDGE, UMTS,
or HSDPA service is available. (See “HSDPA, UMTS, EDGE,
and GPRS service support” on page 6.) Otherwise, you can
configure Watcher to connect only when you select a button.
The AirCard connection provides access to the Internet. Once
the connection is established, you can open your browser and
connect to any web site available on the Internet, or access
other Internet services (such as e-mail).
Rev 3.1A Sep.05
AirCard 800 Series Installation Guide
HSDPA, UMTS, EDGE, and GPRS service
support
GPRS, EDGE, UMTS, and HSDPA are add-on data services to
GSM mobile phone networks. The maximum data speeds
when connected on these services are:
•
GPRS (General Packet Radio Service)—56 kbps
•
EDGE (Enhanced Data GSM Environment)—216 kbps
•
UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System)—
384 kbps
•
HSDPA (High Speed Download Packet Access)—up to
1.8 Mbps on the downlink (receive) with 500 to 800 kbps
typical
GPRS and EDGE are 2G (second generation) data services.
UMTS and HSDPA are 3G (third generation) data services.
When establishing a connection, your AirCard uses the fastest
available service. If, for example, you are using an AirCard in
an area that has GPRS and EDGE service but not UMTS or
HSDPA service, the AirCard connects using EDGE service.
These data connections are Internet connections. Once the
connection is established, you can connect to any web site
accessible through the Internet or use Internet services (such as
e-mail).
Frequency band support
Every GSM network operates on one of these radio frequency
bands, in providing 2G (GPRS or EDGE) service:
•
850 MHz band—(also called the cellular band) used by
some North American service providers
•
900 MHz band—used by some European service
providers
•
1800 MHz band—used by some European and Asian
service providers
•
1900 MHz band—(also called the PCS band) used by
many North American service providers
Every network that offers 3G UMTS/HSDPA service does so
on one of these bands:
•
WCDMA 850—used by North American service providers
•
WCDMA 1900—used by North American service
providers
•
WCDMA 2100—used by European, Asian, and Australian
service providers
2130623
Introducing the AirCard 800 Series Wireless Network Cards
The AirCard 850 and AirCard 860 support all of the 2G bands.
The AirCard 850 supports the WCDMA 2100 3G band (for use
outside of North America). The AirCard 860 supports the
WCDMA 850 and WCDMA 1900 bands (for North American
use).
Your account and coverage area
Note: If you purchased the
AirCard from a GSM service
provider, you may already have
an account. Otherwise, your
retailer should be able to provide
you with the names of
companies that provide this
service.
Companies that operate GSM networks and provide access to
those networks are called service providers. You must have an
account with a GSM service provider that offers HSDPA or
UMTS service to use the AirCard’s 3G capability. (The AirCard
is backward compatible to 2G service.)
When you obtain your account, you are given a SIM card, also
called a “smart card” or “smart chip”. (Depending on how you
purchased your AirCard, you may already have an account,
and your SIM card may have been included in your package.)
The SIM card contains account information and must be
inserted in the AirCard anytime you use it.
Before you can use the AirCard, you must install the AirCard
software and ensure that your AirCard is configured to use
your account. Instructions on completing these steps are
provided in the chapters that follow.
Once installed and configured, you can connect to the Internet
with the AirCard in any area in which you can obtain GPRS,
EDGE, UMTS, or HSDPA service. Your ability to obtain service
depends on these factors:
Note: The fee for service is
usually higher when you are
“roaming” (connected to a
network other than the one
belonging to your service
provider).
•
Proximity to a GSM network—You must be within the
coverage area of a GSM network in order to use the
AirCard.
•
Service provider—If you are within the coverage area of a
network that is not operated by your own service
provider, you can only obtain service if there is a roaming
agreement between your service provider and the network
operator.
•
Account provisions—Your account may restrict your
usage to certain networks or limit the amount of time you
can use the network.
•
Frequency band—You cannot connect to networks
operating in bands not supported by your AirCard,
regardless of roaming agreements or account provisions.
Most service providers have coverage maps on their web sites.
Rev 3.1A Sep.05
AirCard 800 Series Installation Guide
AirCard software
The AirCard comes with this software (made by Sierra
Wireless):
•
The Watcher program that you use to manage the AirCard
and monitor your connections
•
The driver software that forms the interface between the
network card and your Windows operating system
•
The Network Adapter Manager software that allows you
to switch between the AirCard and other network cards
Before you can begin using the
AirCard
Before you can use the AirCard for the first time you must:
1.
Install the AirCard software: Watcher, the Network
Adapter Manager, and the AirCard driver.
2.
Attach the antenna, insert the SIM into the AirCard and
insert the AirCard into your PC Card slot. (Do not insert
the AirCard before installing the software.)
3.
Obtain a GSM account (if this wasn’t done when you
purchased the AirCard).
4.
Configure the AirCard to use your account (unless it was
pre-configured.)
5.
If your Internet browser is configured to use a dial-up
modem, you may need to set it to use a network card.
The next chapters guide you through this process.
Package contents
Your AirCard package contains the following:
•
AirCard wireless network card
•
Antenna
•
Installation CD containing the AirCard software and this
installation guide
•
Quick start guide
2130623
2: The SIM Card and Your Account
• Inserting a SIM card
into your AirCard
• Removing a SIM card
• Attaching the antenna
to your AirCard
Note: Without a valid SIM card
and a valid account, your
AirCard will not work.
You require a GSM account and a SIM (Subscriber Identity
Module) card to use the AirCard. The SIM card is a small chip
(about the size of a postage stamp) that you insert into the
AirCard. The SIM contains account information used by the
network to validate your access.
Depending on how you purchased your AirCard, you may
already have an account. In this case, the SIM should be
included in your package. Otherwise, your retailer should
direct you to a local company that provides GSM service.
To activate an account, the service provider needs from you:
Note: Keep a written record, in a
secure place, of the account
information that your service
provider gives you. Instructions
on creating a profile are in the
section “Configuring Your
Account” on page 17.
•
Billing information (such as a credit card number) used to
collect payment for your network usage
•
Possibly the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment
Identity)—a number that identifies your device (AirCard
model) on the GSM network. This number is printed on
the AirCard box and on the AirCard label.
Your AirCard must be configured to use your account. If
purchased from a service provider, your AirCard may have
been pre-configured. Otherwise, you must set up a profile in
Watcher. Instructions on setting up a profile are described in
Chapter 4.
If you change GSM service providers (such as if you move to a
new city), you will need a new SIM card from your new
service provider. You will also need to set up a new profile.
Inserting a SIM card into your
AirCard
To install your SIM card into the AirCard network card, follow
these steps:
Rev 3.1A Sep.05
1.
If your SIM is attached to a card, detach it and remove any
fragments of the card stuck to the SIM.
2.
Hold the AirCard network card with the label on top and
the antenna closest to you.
3.
Locate the thin SIM card slot on the left side of the AirCard
PC Card’s antenna end.
AirCard 800 Series Installation Guide
Note: To prevent the SIM from
becoming jammed in the AirCard
slot, ensure the edge of the SIM
is smooth before inserting it. Do
not attach labels to your SIM as
this may also cause it to become
jammed.
4.
Orient the SIM card, as shown in the diagram on the
bottom side of the AirCard.
5.
Insert the end of the SIM card into the slot, and gently
push it until it is fully inserted.
Figure 2-1: Inserting the SIM card Into the AirCard SIM card slot
Once the SIM card is properly inserted, it should not
extend beyond the end of the card.

4: Configuring Your Account
• Setting up a profile
Profiles contain account information used by the AirCard to
establish connections. At least one profile must be set up on
the AirCard before you can use it. The profile(s) may have
been stored on the AirCard before you purchased it.
Otherwise, your service provider should give you all the information you need to set up the profile(s) you require.
Depending on your service provider, some or all of this information must be entered into your profile:
•
User Name
•
Password
•
APN (Access Point Name)
•
IP (Internet Protocol) Address (if the address is not
automatically assigned by the network)
•
Use of IP header compression
•
DNS (Domain Name Server) address or addresses
Your service provider may give you only one APN in which
case you require only one profile. Some service providers
assign separate APNs for separate purposes. For example,
some service providers supply one APN to use for Internet
browsing and a different APN to use with a VPN. In this case
you must set up multiple profiles. The AirCard allows for up
to twelve profiles.
Most service providers have one or two standard profiles that
all or most of their subscribers are expected to use. Most of
these standard profiles have been pre-defined in Watcher,
allowing you to select a standard profile, rather than creating it
manually.
One of your profiles must be set as the “default” profile. This is
the one that is used if you select the Connect button without
selecting a profile. The default profile is also used if you set the
AirCard to autoconnect. If you are using the AirCard to access
a network that requires you to provide a password each time
you connect, you must set the connection mode for your
profile to prompt for password (in which case you must
connect manually).
Rev 3.1A Sep.05

Network Card
• Stopping and ejecting
the AirCard
Note: Do not insert the AirCard
before installing the software.
See “Software and Driver Installation” on page 13.
You can ensure reliable operation and long life of your
AirCard by adhering to these guidelines in storage and use:
•
Do not apply adhesive labels to the AirCard or SIM. This
may cause the AirCard or SIM to become jammed inside
the slot, or prevent it from being inserted properly.
•
When not installed in your computer, store the AirCard
and SIM in a safe place.
•
Protect the card from liquids, dust, and excessive heat (see
“Environmental specifications” on page 31 for details).
•
The AirCard should fit easily into your computer’s PC
Card slot. Forcing the AirCard into the slot may damage
the connector pins.
•
Optimal signal strength is usually obtained when the
antenna is pointing straight up. The antenna should bend
easily at the hinge. Do not forcefully bend the antenna.
