To end a wireless broadband connection without shutting down the PC, click Options⇒Disable. To begin another session, click Options⇒Enable.

Certain operating systems act differently when the “Enable” or “Disable” function is selected:

Windows 2000/XP

oEnable: When searching for the connection, the Flarion Mobility Manager displays "Ready/Searching". When the connection is found, the Mobility Manager displays "Ready/Connected"

oDisable: The Flarion Mobility Manager displays "Disabled"

Windows 98 SE

oEnable: When enabled, the Flarion Mobility Manager displays "Ready/Searching" when it is searching for a connection and "Ready/Connected" when the connection is found.

oDisable: The Mobility Manager displays "Ready/Idle”

Note:

In Windows 98 SE, when the Mobility Manager is disabled, and then the notebook PC enters hibernate/standby mode, the status remains disabled. However, when the PC returns from hibernate/standby mode, the Mobility Manager search and connection automatically resumes. If disable is still desired, once again initiate the disable function (ToolsDisable).
