Introduction
Data and fax communication
The Nokia D311 PC card provides the functionality of a wireless modem. In order
to connect to a remote computer, send and receive files, e-mail, and faxes, as well
as access the Internet, please take the following into account:
•
You will need the appropriate data and fax communications software on your
computer. The Nokia D311 PC card is compatible with a variety of commercially
available Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows Me, Windows 2000, and
Windows XP compatible data and fax communications applications, such as
Dial-Up Networking and HyperTerminal.
•
The data and fax applications that reside on your computer must be correctly
configured for use with the Nokia D311 PC card. Follow the instructions given
in the documentation of these applications and remember to select the Nokia
D311 PC card as the modem for each application.
•
The data transfer and fax functions depend on the applications you have
chosen, and not only on the computer or the Nokia D311 PC card. For
information on how to use an application, please refer to that application’s
documentation.
•
You need to subscribe to the corresponding data and fax services from your
wireless provider. Contact your wireless provider for information about the
availability and details of the services in your home network. Internet access
requires that you have subscribed to the data service and obtained an Internet
access point from your wireless provider.
The Nokia D311 PC card can also be controlled with AT commands.
About data transmission
The Nokia D311 PC card employs data transmission capabilities of WLAN and GSM
networks in order to send and receive data, browse the Internet, send short
messages and e-mail, and to establish connections with other computers.
Data connections may be made from most locations where your PC card operates.
However, it is recommended that you move the PC card to a location where the
strongest possible network signal can be obtained. When the signal is strong, data
transmission is more efficient.
Factors that may impair wireless connections:
Interference – Electronic appliances and other equipment can cause radio
interference. Also in areas where PC cards are prevalent, other PC cards can impair
your wireless connection.
Introduction
Roaming – As the PC card user moves from one WLAN access point coverage area
or GSM network cell to another, the signal strength may drop. As a consequence,
the network may hand the user over to a coverage area and frequency where the
signal is stronger. Due to varying network traffic loads, roaming may also occur
when the user is stationary. Such roaming may cause slight delays in transmission.
Electrostatic discharge – A discharge of static electricity from a finger or a
conductor may cause erroneous functions in electrical devices. The discharge may
result in unstable software operation. Network connections may become
unreliable, data may become corrupted, and transmission halted. In those cases,
end the existing connection (if any), stop the PC card, and remove it from the PC
card slot. Then re-insert the PC card into the PC card slot and try connecting again.
Dead spots and dropouts – Dead spots are areas where radio signals cannot be
received. Dropouts occur when the PC card user passes through an area where the
radio signal is blocked or reduced by geographical or structural obstructions, such
as concrete walls.
Signal impairment – Distance and obstacles can cause signals to become out-ofphase. They can also cause reflected signals. Both situations result in a loss of
signal strength.
Low signal strength – Due to either distance or obstacles, the radio signal
strength from a WLAN access point or GSM cell site may not be strong or stable
enough to provide a reliable connection for communication. Therefore, to ensure
the best possible communication, remember to consider the following points:
•
Data connection works best when the PC card is in a stationary position.
Attempting wireless data communication while in a moving vehicle is not
recommended. Fax transmission is more easily impaired than data or text
message transmission.
•
Do not place the PC card on a metal surface.
General Packet Radio Service (GPRS)
Important: GPRS may not be available in all wireless networks. The
establishment and continuation of a GPRS and Internet connection
depends on network availability, wireless provider support, and signal
strength.
GPRS is a packet data technology where information is sent in short bursts of data
over the mobile network. The benefit of sending data in packets is that the
network is occupied only when sending or receiving data. GPRS as such is a data
bearer that enables wireless access to data networks like the Internet. The
applications that use GPRS are SMS messaging and GPRS dial-up (for example,
the Internet and e-mail).
Introduction
Before you can use GPRS technology:
•
You need to subscribe to GPRS service.
For availability and subscription to GPRS service, contact your wireless
provider.
•
You need to save the GPRS settings for the applications used over GPRS.
See “Messages” on page 31 for configuring text message settings.
See also “Create new profiles” on page 21 and “Data and fax communication”
on page 4.
Please refer to the Data Security document found on the Nokia D311 PC card CDROM for information on security issues.
Pricing for GPRS and applications
Confirm the cost of operating your PC card with your wireless provider. You may
be charged for the GPRS connection and any data that is sent and received over
the connection.
Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN)
The PC card described in this document is approved for use in a Wireless Local Area
Network (WLAN).
The Nokia D311 PC card supports the following WLAN features:
•
•
•
IEEE 802.11b standard
Data rates of 1, 2, 5.5, and 11 Mbit/s
Operation at a frequency of 2.412 - 2.462 GHz using Direct Sequence Spread
Spectrum (DSSS) radio technology
•
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption with keys up to 152 bits.
The Nokia D311 PC card enables you to connect compatible laptop computers,
hand-held devices, desktop PCs, and other devices with a type II or III PC card slot
to a local area network through a WLAN access point. Instead of cables, radio
waves are used to transmit and receive data over the air.
If you move the computer to another location within the WLAN and out of range
of a WLAN access point, the roaming functionality can automatically connect
your computer to another access point that belongs to the same network. As long
as you remain within range of access points that belong to the same network, your
computer can stay connected to the network.
Introduction
The Nokia D311 PC card enables different types of communication in a WLAN.
There are two operating modes to choose from: infrastructure and ad hoc.
Infrastructure
The infrastructure operating mode allows two kinds of communication:
•
•
Wireless stations communicate with each other through a WLAN access point.
Wireless stations communicate with a wired LAN station through a WLAN
access point.
WLAN access point
Figure 1 - Infrastructure network
The advantage of the infrastructure operating mode is that you can have more
control over network connections because they pass through an access point. A
wireless station can access the services that are available in a regular wired LAN:
company database, e-mail, the Internet, and other network resources, for example.
Ad hoc
In the ad hoc operating mode, wireless stations send and receive data directly with
each other; no access point is required. Simply insert the PC cards into the
stations, make the necessary configurations, and start communicating. Ad hoc
networking is easy to set up, but communication is limited to stations that are
within range. As long as the stations are within range, you can, for example, share
and exchange files.
Introduction
Figure 2 - Ad hoc network
See “Set up and join ad hoc networks” on page 17 for how to set up an ad hoc
network.
SIM services
SIM services refers to a service which enables you to access the Internet via your
wireless service provider’s own public network. Your wireless provider may, for
example, offer you the possibility to check data from your company intranet, send
and receive e-mail, and save documents. SIM services are usually available in
public places such as hotels, airports, railway stations, business centers, and
corporate buildings.
Note: Before you can take advantage of the SIM services, you must
subscribe to these services from your wireless provider and obtain
instructions for use.
A SIM card is used as a means for user identification: the data stored on the SIM
card is read, and if valid, you are allowed to connect to the Internet and intranets.
The SIM card is provided by the wireless provider.
Accounting data, such as used access time and/or transferred data, is passed from
the network on to the wireless provider for billing purposes. Accounting begins
when the wireless station is authenticated and ends when the wireless station
logs off.
Note: The actual invoice for services from your wireless provider may vary,
depending upon network features, rounding-off for billing, taxes and so
forth.
Security in WLAN
Security issues should always be carefully considered to ensure the secure
transmission of data in both wired and wireless LANs. In current wireless systems,
for example, WLAN access points need to authenticate wireless stations to
Introduction
prevent unauthorized access to the network. Authentication is a service that
confirms the identity of an entity, such as a user or a computer, or confirms the
origin of a transmitted message.
The Nokia D311 PC card supports the Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) protocol,
which offers basic protection in WLAN. The WEP protocol utilizes the RC4
algorithm with an up to 152-bit secret key, which encrypts data before it is
transmitted over radio waves. When the wireless stations in a WLAN wish to
communicate using WEP, they must have the same WEP key in possession.
The Nokia D311 PC card is also compatible with leading Virtual Private Network
(VPN) clients over GPRS and WLAN. VPN is recommended for more secure network
access.
The Nokia D311 PC card is equipped with an integrated smart card reader. SIM
cards and smart card readers provide a tool for managing secure user
authentication in a WLAN. SIM cards also provide an easy way for users to carry an
authentication device with them. On a SIM card users can store important
information, such as WEP keys and network profiles.
The smart card reader reads the data stored on the computer chip and sends it to
the network for processing. The SIM card is protected by a PIN code; to access the
contents of the SIM card, you need to enter the correct PIN code.
Warning: Keep all SIM cards out of reach of small children. Please refer to
the Data Security document found on the product CD-ROM for more
information on security issues.
Antenna
Tip: TIPS ON EFFICIENT OPERATION: Your PC card has a built-in antenna. As
with any other radio transmitting device, do not touch the antenna
unnecessarily when the PC card is on. Contact with the antenna affects
connection quality and may cause the PC card to operate at a higher power
level than otherwise needed. Not touching the antenna area during a
connection optimizes the antenna performance.
The Nokia D311 PC card antenna is inside an
extension box. In this document antenna
refers to the extension box and the antennas
inside it.
Do not cover the antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments
could damage the PC card and may violate regulations governing radio devices.

Getting started
Getting started
With the Nokia D311 PC card you can:
•
establish a General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) connection where
information is sent in short bursts of data over the cellular network. The
benefit of sending data in packets is that the network is occupied only when
sending or receiving data. GPRS is ideal for applications which transmit data in
short bursts, such as Web browsers. The data rate can be up to 40.2 Kbit/s. You
need to subscribe to the GPRS service.
•
connect to a GSM network where you can send and receive text and picture
messages. You can also connect to the Internet or your e-mail by making a
data call, which enables data transmission rates of up to 14.4 Kbit/s. You can
make GSM data calls if your network supports data calls and you have
subscribed to this service.
•
connect to a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) and send and receive data
like in a regular wired LAN. The data rate in WLAN can be up to 11 Mbit/s.
Connect to a network
To be able to connect to a network you need a network profile. Easy connection
profile with predefined settings is automatically created during software
installation. This profile enables network access without your needing to
configure any settings.
If you want to create a profile yourself, see “Create new profiles” on page 21 for
more information.
You need a SIM card to be able to establish a GSM or GPRS connection.
To create a network connection:

With the Nokia D311 PC card you can send and receive text and picture messages.
See “Nokia Short Messaging” on page 41 for more information.
Any changes that you make to message settings affect the way in which your
messages are sent and received. The availability of some of the settings depends
on the wireless provider.
SMS application in use
Select the Short Message Service (SMS) application you want to use for sending
and receiving messages. The Nokia D311 PC card includes the Nokia Short
Messaging application.
Message center number
You need the message center number to send messages. You receive the number
from your wireless provider.
Messages sent as
Text and picture messages are normally sent in text format, but it is possible to
convert them into an alternative format (e-mail, fax, paging). To be able to receive
a converted message, the recipient must have an appropriate device available, and
the network must support this feature.
Message validity
If the recipient of a message cannot be reached within the set message validity
period, the message is removed from the message center. If you select Maximum,
the validity period is set to the maximum time allowed by the network.
Reply via same message center
Select this check box if you want to request the network to route the reply to your
message via your own message center.
Delivery reports
Select this check box if you want to receive delivery reports on the messages you
have sent.
Send long messages
If the Send long messages check box is selected, messages longer than 160
characters are sent as concatenated messages. A concatenated message is
received as one long message if the recipient’s device supports this function. If
this option is not selected, messages longer than 160 characters are sent as
several normal text messages.
Start SMS application when message is received
Select this check box if you want your SMS application, such as Nokia Short
Messaging, to open automatically when you have received a message.

in the appropriate text box or click the Browse button and select the file you want.
By clicking the arrow button you can listen to an example of the selected wav file.
WLAN settings (WLAN tab)
Enable power saving
The Nokia D311 PC card is equipped with a power saving option which controls
the amount of power it consumes during operation, which may prolong the life of
your computer’s battery.
If you select the Enable power saving check box, the Nokia D311 PC card goes
into sleep mode and powers up at regular intervals to check for incoming and
outgoing data. If data is detected at the WLAN access point during these checks,
the Nokia D311 PC card then powers up to send or receive the data.
Note: The speed of communication decreases when the power saving
option is used.
Note: The power saving option may not be compatible with WLAN access
points that are not Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) approved. Do not use power
saving with such access points.
Case-sensitive network names
By default, the name of the WLAN is case-sensitive. If you do not want the
network names to be case-sensitive, clear this check box.
Renew DHCP automatically when needed
If the network has a DHCP server and you want the system to allocate your IP
addresses automatically, select the Renew DHCP automatically when needed
check box. You can also renew your IP address whenever you want by clicking the
Renew DHCP Now button.
Security settings (Security tab)
You can set various access codes and protect your PC card and SIM card against
unauthorized use.
Codes can only include digits from 0 to 9.
32
Nokia D311 PC card features
PIN code request
The PIN (Personal Identification Number) code is usually supplied with the SIM
card. It protects your SIM card against unauthorized use. If you set the PIN code
request on, you are asked for the PIN code when you start the Nokia D311 PC card
program or insert the PC card, provided that you have inserted a SIM card into the
PC card. Click the Change button to change the status.
Note: Some SIM cards do not allow turning off the PIN code request.
If you enter an incorrect PIN code three times in a row, the code is blocked and the
SIM card cannot be used. To change a blocked PIN code, you need a PUK (PIN
Unblocking Key) code. PUK is an 8-digit code supplied with the SIM card.
Security code request
The security code protects your PC card against unauthorized use, and is supplied
with the PC card. The preset code is 12345. Change the preset code and keep the
new code secret and in a safe place separate from your PC card.
If you key in an incorrect security code five times in succession, the PC card will
not accept the correct code for the next five minutes.
To change access codes:
You can change the PIN code, security code, and restriction password. Note that
changing the restriction password requires that the call restriction service is
activated for your SIM card.
1 On the Settings page, select the Security tab and click Change Access Code.
2 The Change Access Code dialog box opens. Select from the list the access code
you want to change.
3 In the Current code box, type the code used presently.

Manage personal WEP keys
Personal Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) keys are used for authenticating the user
in a WLAN. Personal keys are usually created by the system administrator, who
can store them on SIM cards and then distribute them to the users. Personal keys
can also be saved to a file. Since personal keys are not network specific, they
cannot be saved together with profiles. They can, however, be saved to a file and
used independently from profiles.
Personal WEP keys can be used only with the infrastructure operating mode,
provided that the WLAN access point supports the keys. Ad hoc networks use
shared WEP keys only.
See “Create and edit personal WEP keys” on page 40 for more information.
Administrator page
The Administrator page is meant for system administrators and is not installed as
part of the normal installation procedure. On the Administrator page, the system
administrator can view detailed information on the network connections and save
important data on a SIM card. The administrator can create installation disks that
include relevant network profiles and settings, and that then can be distributed to
end users within a corporation, for example.
Monitor information on WLAN
On the WLAN tab you can view general information on various elements of a
WLAN. Depending on the type of access point in use, the details displayed can
include network name, data rate, channel, signal strength, and IP address.
Select from the following items:
Access points – In the infrastructure operating mode, shows which WLAN access
points are currently in range and available.
Networks – Shows all the wireless local area networks that can be accessed with
the PC card.
Wireless stations – In the ad hoc operating mode, the names of the other
computers connected to the ad hoc network are displayed. Note that only the
names of those computers that are using the Nokia D311 PC card are shown.
To update the information on display, click Refresh.
35
Nokia D311 PC card features
View WLAN statistics
On the Statistics tab you can view detailed information on the connection
between the Nokia D311 PC card and the WLAN access point to which you are
linked. Both graphical and numeric statistics are given for the following
properties: connection quality, received signal strength (RSSI), noise floor, signal
to noise ratio (SNR), Tx retry rate, and data flow.
If you want to save the information to a text file, click Start Logging.
Create installation disks
The system administrator can create installation disks that contain all the
software and necessary settings needed for accessing networks. The custom
installation package fits on a compact disk but can also be saved on a hard disk.
The installation disk can be used for distributing profiles. All the desired settings
and profiles can be copied to the installation disk, and the end user does not have
to configure settings in order to be able to connect to a network.
To generate an installation disk:
1 On the Administrator page, select the Installation Disk tab. Select from the
following options:
Profiles available – The list contains the names of all the profiles found in the
system registry. Select the profiles that you want to include in the installation
package.
Allow editing of selected profiles – The administrator can deny the editing of
those profiles that are distributed with the installation disk. The user can
create new profiles.
Include smart card driver – If you want other applications to be able to use the
smart card reader of the Nokia D311 PC card, you need to install a PC/SC
(Personal Computer Smart Card) compliant smart card driver. When this
option is selected, the smart card reader can be used with other applications
besides the Nokia D311 PC card, and with special types of smart cards.
Include basic settings from Settings page – Certain settings that have been
configured on the Settings page can be included in the installation package.
These include all settings configured on the General tab, GSM tab (no
advanced settings such as call forwarding), and WLAN tab. These settings are
common for all profiles.
Create one file installation package – The installation package consists of only
one executable file. It contains the necessary files and drivers, and is easier to
distribute through e-mail, for example, than several separate files.
Include Administrator page – The entire Administrator page is included in the
installation package.
36
Nokia D311 PC card features
2 To start creating an installation disk with the selected profiles and options,
click Create.
3 Select the destination folder and click OK.
Manage SIM card contents
The system administrator can store important information such as personal WEP
keys and network profiles on a SIM card. The administrator can then give users
SIM cards, which contain the necessary network settings and encryption keys for
quick network access.
Transferring files from the computer to the SIM card and vice versa is done by
using a drag-and-drop operation or by using the Copy, Move, and Delete buttons
on the SIM Card tab.
For the changes to take effect, click Apply. Note that the button is inactive if there
is not enough free space on the SIM card. If you have made changes but wish to
restore the previous state, click Restore.
Distribute profiles
The system administrator can create profiles and then distribute them to end
users within a corporation. There are different ways for delivering profiles:
•
Installation disks: the system administrator can create installation disks which
contain all the software and necessary settings needed for accessing networks
– including profiles. See “Create installation disks” on page 36.
•
Network: profiles can be saved to a folder on a network drive from which the
end user can import the profile. See “Import and export profiles” on page 27.
•
SIM card: the system administrator can store profiles on SIM cards which can
then be distributed to end users. See “Manage SIM card contents” above.
•
Text messages: profiles can be distributed by sending a text message that
includes a profile. See “Send a profile as a text message” on page 27.
WEP security
To increase the security of communication over the wireless local area network,
the Nokia D311 PC card offers the Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security
feature. WEP uses the RC4 algorithm with an up to 152-bit key. The algorithm
provides for security via two methods: authentication and encryption.
Authentication is the means by which one wireless station is verified to have
authorization to communicate with a second station in a given coverage area.
37
Nokia D311 PC card features
In the infrastructure operating mode, authentication is established between a
WLAN access point and each wireless station. If a wireless station receives a
packet that has not been scrambled with a correct key, the packet is discarded.
Encrypted messages can be opened by other PC cards only if they all use the same
encryption key. In the ad hoc operating mode, authentication is established
between each wireless station.
The level of security is dependent on the length of the key: the more bits there are
in the key, the longer it takes to decrypt the information sent and the higher the
level of security.
WEP keys consist of a secret key and a 24-bit Initialization Vector. For example,
the 128-bit WEP key has a 104-bit secret key that the user can set, and a 24-bit
Initialization Vector that cannot be controlled by the user. Many manufacturers
refer to this 128-bit key as a 128-bit key, whereas some refer to it as a 104-bit key
(104+24). Both keys offer the same level of encryption and are therefore
interchangeable.
Tip: Regardless of how the WEP keys have been named, all keys are
compatible as long as their length is the same. For example, keys that are 40
bits long, always consist of 5 alphanumeric characters or 10 hexadecimal
characters.
The Nokia D311 PC card supports three key lengths: 40 (40+24), 128 (104+24),
and 152 (128+24) bits. The 40-bit key is Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) compatible.
There are two types of WEP keys: shared keys and personal keys.
Shared WEP keys
Shared WEP keys are shared by all wireless stations using the network or
subnetwork; only stations that have the correct key can receive and decrypt data.
The same key is loaded into the WLAN access point. Shared keys are usually
created by system administrators, who distribute them to users.
Shared keys are network-specific, and each network can have a maximum of four
different shared keys. A WLAN access point only transmits data using the active
key, but can receive data from wireless stations using any of the four shared WEP
keys.
Tip: If you have a profile that includes more than one network, it is
recommended that you use the same shared WEP keys with all these
networks.
Because the shared WEP keys are network-specific and user-independent, they
can be saved in a file together with profiles. Users can import from a file or a SIM
card profiles that include shared keys and that have been created by their system
administrator.
Shared keys can be used as the only form of WEP security or used together with a
personal key.
38
Nokia D311 PC card features
Personal WEP keys
Each wireless station can have an individual, personal WEP key. Personal keys are
used for providing additional security for wireless connections. They are usually
created by system administrators, who distribute them to users. A WLAN access
point uses a different key for each wireless station.
There are two types of personal WEP keys, and the difference between the keys is
the type of information that is used for identifying the user:
•
•
Station-specific – Uses the MAC address of the PC card to identify the user.
User-specific – Uses an identifier that the users can create themselves.
Unlike shared WEP keys, personal WEP keys are not network specific, and
therefore cannot be saved together with profiles. They can, however, be saved to
a file and used independently from profiles.
Personal WEP keys can be used only with the infrastructure operating mode. Ad
hoc networks use shared WEP keys only.
Note: Not all WLAN access points support personal WEP keys. Ask your
system administrator for more information.
Create and edit shared WEP keys
Shared WEP keys are usually created by a system administrator.
In the infrastructure operating mode, make sure that the same shared WEP key is
configured to the WLAN access point; if the access point and PC card are using
incompatible keys, they cannot communicate. Contact your system administrator
for details.
1 On the Profiles page, select the Modify tab. Select from the list the profile
with which you want to use a shared WEP key. Click Edit.
2 The Edit Profile dialog box opens. Select WLAN and General tab.
3 Select the Use WEP security check box and click WEP Keys.
4 Select from the four keys which one you want to modify. Click Edit.
5 Select the appropriate key length. Supported key lengths are 40, 128, and 152
bits. Remember that the more bits there are in the key, the higher the level of
security.
Type in the WEP key data in hexadecimal format. If you want to enter the WEP
key in text form, type the text in the In text form box. You can copy and paste
the text by using the CTRL+ C and CTRL+V key combinations respectively.
6 Click OK to save the shared WEP key.
To select which shared WEP key to use, select the key and click Activate.
To empty the contents of the key, click Clear.
39
Nokia D311 PC card features
Create and edit personal WEP keys
Personal WEP keys can be used only with the infrastructure operating mode. Ad
hoc networks use shared WEP keys only. Make sure that the same personal WEP
key is configured to the WLAN access point; if the access point and PC card are
using incompatible keys, they cannot communicate with each other. Contact your
system administrator for details.
1 Go to the Tools page and select the Personal Keys tab. Click New to create a
new key, or click Edit to modify an existing one.
2 Give the personal key a name. You can also include a further description of the
key, such as the name of the network where the key is used.
3 Select the type of key you want to create: station-specific or user-specific. If
you choose a station-specific key, the MAC address of the PC card is used for
identifying the user. If you choose a user-specific key, you can choose the
identifier yourself.
4 Select the appropriate key length. Supported key lengths are 40, 128, and 152
bits. Remember that the more bits there are in the key, the higher the level of
security. Click Generate. The system generates your personal key.
To enter the WEP key in text form, type the text in the In text form box. You
can also copy and paste the text using the CTRL+ C and CTRL+V keys.
5 Click OK to save the WEP key.
Import and export personal WEP keys
Instead of creating a personal WEP key yourself, you can import from a folder a key
created, for example, by your system administrator. You can export and save
personal keys in folders. The system administrator can import personal WEP keys
from a SIM card and export them to a SIM card.
1 On the Tools page, select the Personal Keys tab. Select the key you want to
save to a file and click Export. To open a key from a file, click Import.
2 If you are exporting a personal WEP key, select the destination to which you
want to save the key, and click Save. If you are importing a key, select the
source from which you want to import the key and click Open.

Installation
The installation program is interrupted.
Make sure you have enough battery power on your computer.
Make sure that you have at least 20MB of free disk space on your computer.
Make sure you have enough free resources (such as RAM) available on your
computer.
Check that you have closed all Windows applications before starting the
installation, and that you have not inserted the PC card into your computer until
prompted to do so by the installation program.
The CD-ROM drive cannot be opened during installation.
Some CD-ROM drives cannot be opened when installing software from them. If
you think that you might need the operating system files during the installation,
it is advisable that you first copy the Nokia D311 PC card installation files to the
hard drive of your compatible PC and install the program from there.
The PC card cannot be inserted into the PC card slot.
Check that the PC card is turned the right side up.
Check the PC card slot for any problems.
After inserting the PC card, it takes a while before the computer responds.
There might be a pause while the driver initializes the PC card. This is normal.
Please wait until the next message box appears and tells you what to do. This
should not take more than a few minutes.
Installation to a network drive fails.
You cannot install the Nokia D311 PC card software onto a network drive. The
software must always be installed on a local hard drive.
I do not have a CD-ROM drive on my computer.
Using another computer, copy the installation program on floppy disks. On the
CD-ROM there is a folder at English\Setup. Copy the contents of this folder on
floppy disks. It is recommended that you then copy the contents of the disks to the
48
Troubleshooting
hard drive of your compatible PC before installing. If installed directly from the
floppy disks, the system will ask you to change the disk several times.
Network
The PC card seems to be working, but the network connection does not work.
Run the fault diagnosis tests on the Tools page. If all tests are passed successfully,
make sure that the network settings are correct. Ask your system administrator for
advice.
In Windows 98/Me, Network Neighborhood does not show my computer name at all. Other
computers cannot see my computer name in Network Neighborhood either.
Open the Network dialog box (click Start, Settings, Control Panel, Network) and
click the File and Print Sharing button. Make sure that the I want to be able to
give others access to my files check box is selected. Other users should now be
able to see your computer in Network Neighborhood. If you share folders on your
computer, other users can see them too.
I cannot access the Internet.
When using a WLAN connection type, check that you use a routing protocol such
as TCP/IP.
Make sure that the proxy settings in the Web browser are correct.
Make sure that the network which you are accessing has a connection to
the Internet.
Resources
The PC card does not work and this is probably caused by another installed device.

You can try to determine whether the problem lies with the computer or the PC
card by using the card in another available PC card slot, by installing the card in
another computer, or by using another card in the first computer.
The PC card does not work in another PC card slot, but works in another computer.
Try to insert another PC card in the slot to determine if there is a compatibility
problem between the Nokia D311 PC card and the PC card slot, or if there is a
general fault with the slot.
The SIM card is not detected by the PC card.
Make sure that you are using a correct type of SIM card. The PC card does not
support 5 Volt SIM cards.
Make sure that the SIM card is inserted correctly: the connectors on the SIM card
and the PC card must meet.
Note: You can find the latest troubleshooting information in the
readme.txt file on the Nokia D311 PC card CD-ROM.
Tip: On the Tools page you can run fault diagnosis tests and save the test
results to a text file. The report can be useful if you need, for example, to
contact technical support in problem situations.

Important safety information
Important safety information
Traffic safety
Do not use the PC card while driving a vehicle. Do not place the PC card on the
passenger seat or where it can break loose in a collision or sudden stop.
Remember: road safety always comes first!
Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always power
off your PC card whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause
interference or danger. The Nokia D311 PC card may cause interference similar to
any cellular device (such as a mobile phone) and must not be used in areas where
the use of any such device is prohibited.
Use the PC card in its normal operating position.
The card may feel hot; this is normal.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals.
However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals
from your PC card.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 20 cm (6
inches) be maintained between a PC card and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the
independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
•
Should always keep the PC card more than 20 cm (6 inches) from their
pacemaker when the PC card is powered on.
•
•
Should not carry the PC card in a breast pocket.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, power off
your PC card immediately.
Hearing aids
Some digital PC cards may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may want to consult your wireless provider.
52
Important safety information
Other medical devices
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including PC cards, may interfere
with the functionality of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a
physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF energy or if you have any questions. Power
off your PC card in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these
areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using
equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic
systems in motor vehicles (for example, electronic fuel injection systems,
electronic anti-skid (anti-lock) braking systems, electronic speed control systems,
air-bag systems). Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding
your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has
been added to your vehicle.
Posted facilities
Ensure the Nokia D311 PC card is not powered on in any facility where posted
notices so require.
Potentially explosive atmospheres
Power off your PC card when located in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause
an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Users are advised to power off the PC card when at a refuelling point (service
station). Users are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio
equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution areas), chemical plants, or
where blasting operations are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly
marked. These include below deck on boats; chemical transfer or storage facilities;
vehicles using liquified petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where
the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and
any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle
engine.
Vehicles
For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that an air bag inflates with great
force. Do not place objects in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment
area. Serious injury could result if the PC card is improperly placed and the air bag
inflates.
