When displayed, no WiFi network adapter is detected; WiFi connections are not possible.WiFi coverage: No hotspots are detected.At least one hotspot has been detected. Detected hotspots are shown on the WiFi tab (if they are broadcasting hotspots). The ToolTip shows the number of WiFi networks detected.
Online Help for VZW EM5625 NB34 2130548Your ability to connect to a hotspot depends on how it is operated. Some hotspots are operated by wireless service providers, and you require a subscription to use them. Some are privately operated within homes, businesses, and organi-zations. To connect to a hotspot, you may require a WEP key and/or an SSID (Service Set Identifier), depending on how the hotspot is configured. You obtain these from the WiFi network operator.Note: Every manufacturer designs their WiFi network adapters to perform to different specifications. For example, some network adapters do not present signal strength; for such network adapters, Watcher is unable to indicate hotspot signal strength. Your WiFi network adapter may not operate exactly as described here.Related topics>>| Broadcasting and non-broadcasting WiFi hotspots>>| WEP keysBroadcasting and non-broadcasting WiFi hotspotsA WiFi hotspot can be “broadcasting” or “non-broadcasting”.Broadcasting WiFi hotspots transmit their SSID, allowing any WiFi network adapter within coverage to detect them.Non-broadcasting hotspots do NOT transmit their SSIDs. In Watcher, you can configure your WiFi network adapter to use a non-broadcasting hotspot by creating a profile for that hotspot, containing the SSID. The WiFi tab in Watcher shows all detected broadcasting hotspots. If you connect to a non-broadcasting hotspot, that hotspot is also displayed on this tab. You have a WiFi connection. The ToolTip shows the number of WiFi networks detected.WiFi signal strength. The indicator on the right side of the Status box shows the signal strength of the hotspot with the strongest signal. The number of bars increases as signal strength increases, to a maximum of five bars. The ToolTip shows the numeric value of the RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator).Blank bars mean that you are outside of the coverage area or have insufficient signal strength to maintain a WiFi connection.

(If a VZAccess (NationalAccess or BroadbandAccess) connection exists when Watcher is started, the connection is ended, and a WiFi connection is attempted.)Note: If the Broadcasted check box is NOT selected, and the profile is set to autoconnect, Watcher’s performance may be impacted. On start-up of Watcher, a connection is attempted using any profiles set to autoconnect, based on how the profiles are ranked. The process required to connect to a non-broadcasting hotspot requires several seconds.

Rev 0.21 Dec.04 9544: ActivationActivation overviewYour EM5625 connects to a CDMA network. To use the network, you require an account with a service provider. The process of activation configures your EM5625 with the required account parameters (phone number, etc.).The Activation Wizard guides you through the process.If your EM5625 does not have an activated account, then, when you run Watcher or it autostarts, the Activation Wizard should autostart. If this does not happen: To start the wizard manually, select TOOLS > Activation Wizard...To display information about your account, use HELP > About Watcher..., or the Connection Manager properties.CDMA service provider accountCompanies that operate CDMA networks and provide access to these networks are called service providers. You must have an account with Verizon Wireless to use the EM5625.Each service provider has its own pricing options. There may be flat rate accounts, which provide you a maximum number of minutes of network usage for a fixed monthly fee. There may be accounts for which you are charged for network usage by the minute or by the amount of data transmitted.Your account may include a variety of other services such as text messaging and voice mail.Each EM5625 has been provisioned at the factory for use with a particular service provider (Verizon Wireless). This sets the EM5625 to use particular radio channels and enable services specific for that provider.The process of setting up your account is called activation. Activation involves action by Verizon Wireless and configu-ration of the EM5625.Your service provider needs to know what billing information to use to collect payment for your network usage. They also need to know the ESN (Electronic Serial Number) assigned to your modem during the manufacturing process. (The ESN can be displayed in Watcher.) This number is used to help authen-ticate your account when you connect for service.
