Enabling/Disabling the Dell Mobile Broadband Card
NOTE: If you are unable to connect to a Mobile Broadband network, ensure that
you have all the components for establishing a Mobile Broadband connection (see
"What You Need to Establish a Mobile Broadband Network Connection" on
page 105), and then verify that your Mobile Broadband card is enabled by verifying
the setting of the wireless switch.
You can turn your Tablet-PC’s wireless devices on and off with the wireless
switch on the left side of the Tablet-PC (see "Left Side View" on page 32).
If the switch is in the "on" position, move the switch to the "off" position to
disable the switch and the Mobile Broadband card. If the switch is in the "off"
position, move the switch to the "on" position to enable the switch and the
Dell Mobile Broadband card. For information about the wireless switch
positions, see "Dell Wi-Fi Catcher™ Network Locator" on page 109.
To monitor the status of your wireless device, see "Monitoring the Status of
the Wireless network adapter Through Dell QuickSet" on page 105.
