1 | Introduction Why sit confined at a desk when you can check email and browse the Web while lounging in bed? Socket’s Cordless 56K Modem with Bluetooth Wireless Technology lets you comfortably access the Internet from your Pocket PC, Palm PDA, Windows notebook or tablet PC without any cables tying you down. Cellular coverage isn’t ubiquitous, and not all hotels have LAN or Wi-Fi, but virtually every place you go will have telephone access. Plus, the modem avoids the hassles of spotty cellular data service, cellular network incompatibility or expensive roaming charges. Just connect the Cordless 56K Modem to any analog phone line, make a Bluetooth connection with your mobile computer, and enjoy up to 328 ft (100 m) of wireless freedom. You can use the Cordless 56K Modem with almost any Bluetooth enabled mobile computer that supports a Dial-up Networking client. No software is required —the Socket Cordless 56K Modem works right out of the box! Optional Software for Windows Mobile Socket’s software for Windows Mobile is optional to install but highly recommended because of the great features it offers. Socket Connect!Agent greatly simplifies Bluetooth by working in the background to manage the wireless connection between the Pocket PC and the Socket Cordless 56K Modem. Bluetooth configuration and setup are automated, providing a hassle-free Bluetooth experience to the user. Follow Socket’s Connection Setup wizard to quickly and easily set up a dial-up connection to your Internet Service Provider or office network. Socket’s Modem Utilities software enables you to take advantage of the modem’s v.92 features, program the modem for different country codes, and adjust the speaker volume.

About V.92 Quick Connect Quick Connect is a V.92 modem specification that reduces the time needed to establish a connection via faster handshaking. Handshaking (which makes all the noise you hear while dialing in) typically takes 25-27 seconds, but with Quick Connect, lasts only about half as long. When enabled with Quick Connect, the Socket Cordless 56K Modem will store data about the last connection — or in other words, “train” itself for the last phone line used. While dialing into a network, the Socket Cordless 56K Modem will compare the phone line characteristics with the stored data, and if a match is found, the handshake starts using previous settings. Quick Connect is convenient if you plan to repeatedly use the Socket Cordless 56K Modem with the same phone line, for example the phone line in your hotel room. IMPORTANT! If you plan to use your modem in different locations, Socket recommends that you disable the Quick Connect feature. If you enable Quick Connect but use the modem in different locations, the connection may take twice as long to establish because it searches for the previous line characteristics before trying to connect to the new line. System Requirements Your mobile computer should meet these minimum requirements: • Bluetooth wireless technology • Support for a Bluetooth Dial-up Networking Client Minimum requirements for Socket software: • Windows Mobile 2003/2003SE/5.0 • ActiveSync 4.0 or greater • Connect!Agent: Additionally, your Pocket PC must have the Broadcom (Widcomm), Microsoft or Socket (SD/CF card) Bluetooth stack* Note: If your Pocket PC is not compatible with Connect!Agent, or if you do not want to install it, use your device’s Bluetooth software. V.92 Quick Connect requires a V.92 Internet Service Provider. *Socket Connect!Agent is not compatible on Windows Mobile 5.0 devices using the Socket SD/CF Bluetooth card. 6
