Automatic Connection Upon Device Attachment

When a device is in NDIS mode, it can be configured to establish a connection automatically whenever you attach it to your computer.

1.Open the Hardware tab of the Settings window. (Click Tools > Settings > Hardware.)

2.Click Modify next to the Mobile Devices heading. The CDMA version of the Device Properties window appears (see page 93).

3.Select the Auto Connect when device is available check box.

Note: This feature will behave differently depending on whether RAS or NDIS is selected in the section below the check box. If RAS is selected, autoconnection will occur only if the Sprint SmartView software is running. If NDIS is selected, autoconnection will occur even if Sprint SmartView is not running.

4.Click OK to exit the Device Property window.

5.Click OK to exit the Settings window.

Your device should now automatically establish a connection each time you connect it to your computer.

Important: This is one of two autoconnect features provided by the Sprint SmartView software. This feature automatically establishes a connection when you attach a particular mobile broadband device to your computer. It will automatically connect to the highest priority network regardless of whether the profile for that network specifies autoconnection.

The other feature automatically establishes connections to individual networks based on the configuration of the corresponding network profiles. This is controlled by the Connection Options setting on the General page of the profile properties window. The feature is enabled each time you start Sprint SmartView, but can be disabled by establishing a connection manually. You can re-enable this feature by clicking Auto in the main window.
