1: The EM5625 wireless modem
About your EM5625
Your EM5625 wireless modem allows you to do the following
(subject to feature availability), without using a wireline phone
or network:
•
Connect to the Internet, VPN and corporate networks
•
Send and receive e-mail
•
Connect to a dial-up service
•
Send and receive SMS messages
•
Make and receive phone calls
Your EM5625 connects to wireless CDMA networks, providing
data transmission speeds up to 2.4 Mbps.
To use the EM5625, you must have an account that gives you
access to the Verizon Wireless VZAccessSM service.
Feature availability
The EM5625 provides a wide range of capabilities using
CDMA wireless network technology.
Some features described may not be available with your
network account. For details of the services and accounts
available, contact Verizon.
CDMA networks
The EM5625 provides a variety of connectivity features,
depending on your account:
Rev 0.21 Dec.04
•
BroadbandAccessSM high-speed packet data, sometimes
known as 1xEV-DO, supports Internet connections with
data rates up to 2.4 Mbps (downlink from the network),
and 153.6 kbps (uplink to the network). Actual speed
depends on the network conditions.
•
NationalAccess high-speed packet data, sometimes
known as 1X, supports Internet connections with data
rates up to 153.6 kbps (downlink from the network) and
76.8 kbps (uplink to the network). Actual speed depends
on the network conditions.
•
Circuit switched (dial-up) data, using the earlier CDMA
IS-95 specification, supports dial-up data connections at
rates up to 14.4 kbps.
Online Help for VZW EM5625 NB
•
Quick 2 NetSM provides a simplified way to dial into an
Internet connection (using circuit switched data).
•
SMS (Short Message Service) allows you to send and
receive short text messages using the EM5625.
•
Voice calling, including E911 (Phase I) support for
emergency services.
Network account and coverage
To use the network, you require a Verizon Wireless account.
The area in which you can obtain CDMA network service is
called the coverage area. To obtain coverage you must:
•
Be in proximity to a CDMA network, operating in a
frequency band supported by the modem.
•
Have an account that allows you to access that network.
You can make phone calls (subject to feature availability)
wherever you have coverage and the network accepts your
account.
In areas where there is CDMA coverage but no VZAccess
(NationalAccess or BroadbandAccess) service, you can use the
EM5625 for dial-up and Quick 2 Net connections (subject to
feature availability). Where VZAccess is implemented, you can
make NationalAccess or BroadbandAccess high-speed packet
data connections. To determine available services, check the
Connection status area icons.
With roaming service, you can use your account on networks
outside of the Verizon Wireless VZAccess coverage area.
Roaming
An icon in the Connection status area of Watcher indicates
roaming.
You are in a preferred roaming area. If this icon is flashing,
you are in a non-preferred roaming area, and you may not be
able to complete your calls.
You are within your own service provider's network.
You can configure a Service Alert to notify you when your
coverage changes.

Watcher overview
Watcher for the EM5625 wireless modem is the application
that allows you to manage and monitor the connection
between the EM5625 and the CDMA network.
Without running Watcher, you can make a VZAccess highspeed data connection simply by launching whatever application you want to use (such as your web browser or e-mail
application). Prerequisites: you must have previously enabled,
in Watcher, “Always-on” for the high-speed connection, and
•
(If you have enabled auto-launch:) WiFi coverage is either
not available, or is available but no WiFi profiles have been
set to autoconnect.
However, to make use of other features of the EM5625, you
must run Watcher.
Watcher also allows you to manage and monitor connections
with a WiFi network adapter.

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.
Your 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 organizations. 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.

hotspots
A 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

To connect to a broadcasting hotspot, you do not require a
profile. However, there are benefits to creating profiles for
broadcasting hotspots that you use frequently:
•
If you are required to enter a WEP key to connect to a
hotspot, you can store the WEP key in a profile so that you
do not need to enter it each time you connect.
•
You can configure the profile to autolaunch a VPN,
Internet browser, or other application, and you can set the
profile to autoconnect at Watcher start-up.
From the WiFi Profiles tab in the Connection Manager window,
you can:
•

Creating WiFi profiles
You will need information from the wireless service provider
(if the profile is for a subscribed WiFi service) or the IT
department (if the profile is for a private WiFi network in a
business or organization), for the following fields:
•
Network SSID—Name assigned to the hotspot.
•
Broadcasted—Whether the WiFi hotspot is “broadcasting” or “non-broadcasting”.
•
WEP Key—Security code used to control access to the
hotspot. A WEP key may or may not be required.
To create a profile:
1.
Access the profile window in one of these ways:
· From the WiFi tab, select a hotspot and select the Add
Profile button
. (If this button appears dimmed, a
profile already exists for this hotspot.)
· Select TOOLS > Connection Manager > WiFi Profiles and
select the Add button.
2.
Complete the fields in the General tab of the profile, using
the information you’ve obtained (see above), plus the
following:
· Notes—Comments regarding this hotspot. This is for
your own use, and is typically used to record the
location of the hotspot.
· Autoconnect—Determines whether a connection is
established automatically. When enabled (the box is
checked), a connection using this profile is automatically
initiated based on its rank in the WiFi profile list. (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. Thus, Watcher may be slow to respond after start-up, if one
or more profiles are set to autoconnect, and the profiles are set as
non-broadcasting. It is important that the Broadcasted check box be
set correctly to match the hotspot.

4: Activation
Activation overview
Your 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 account
Companies 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 configuration 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 authenticate your account when you connect for service.
Rev 0.21 Dec.04

Configuring the EM5625 involves setting the phone number
assigned by Verizon Wireless and may involve entering other
network parameters and settings such as a user name and
password to access services.
If you purchased your wireless device directly from Verizon
Wireless, you may already have an account; your EM5625 may
be pre-activated.
Unless your EM5625 has been pre-activated, Watcher automatically detects that no account has been configured when you
run it for the first time. Watcher then runs the Activation
Wizard to guide you through the activation and configuration
process.

>>| Voice-Assisted / Automated Activation
Activation Wizard - Select Option
The Activation Wizard walks you through the process of
configuring an account. The process and options vary based on
the service provider. This section is a guide only. Consult your
product documentation, and follow the directions on screen
and given by your service provider representative.
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:
1.
2.
Ensure Watcher is running.
Start the Activation Wizard: select TOOLS >

Depending on your modem configuration, either or both of
these options appear when the wizard is launched:

Manual Activation involves phoning your service
provider, exchanging information, and entering your
account information into the appropriate fields in the
wizard. (To use this method, you require a phone, other
than your wireless device.)
•
Voice-Assisted / Automated Activation involves the
EM5625 placing a call to a special number at the service
provider. Much of the process is automated, but you may
require a headset (or TTY). Follow onscreen prompts.
2130548
Activation
To begin activation of the EM5625, select the method and click
Next.
Manual Activation
Additional notes may advise you what to have ready. Consult
the product documentation if needed. When you have
collected the required information, call your service provider.
Inform the representative that you are activating a Sierra
Wireless EM5625 for Verizon.
In the Activation Wizard, click Next.
Input Activation Code
For the activation code, enter six zeroes (000000), then click
Next.
Enter Phone Number
This is the phone number assigned by your service provider. It
is usually in the form of a 10-digit number: the area code and
local number, without spaces or hyphens.
For service providers supporting Wireless Local Number
Portability (WLNP), the phone number may appear in separate
parts, adding an entry for MSID or IMSI. For assistance, consult
your product documentation or your service provider.
Enter the information that the service provider gives you, then
click Next.

5: Troubleshooting
Not in Service
•
If you are inside a building or near a structure that may be
blocking the signal, change the position or location of your
computer.
•
Ensure you are within the CDMA network coverage area.
For coverage information, contact Verizon.
•
Check with Verizon - a network or account problem may
be preventing the EM5625 from obtaining service.
Modem is In Use
The EM5625 already has a connection when you attempt to
make another connection.
•
End the first call before you initiate the next one.
SMS Failed
Some possible reasons for a failure to send are:
•
You do not have a subscription to a service that allows you
to send SMS messages.
•
You do not have NationalAccess service (
) or an active
dial-up/Quick 2 NetSM (14.4kbps) connection ( ).
•
A destination in the “To” field is not valid.
•
The message exceeded the maximum length for SMS
messages (usually around 160 characters).
•
There is a CDMA network problem or a problem with
your account.
Cannot send or receive SMS
Ensure you have:
Rev 0.21 Dec.04
•
