Phone Number for the Wireless Modem
Every wireless modem will have its own unique phone number.
The wireless modem’s phone number may simply be told to the subscriber or be on the
SIM or both. Wireless provider implementations may vary.
Network Access
The network access arrangements to be specified in Windows Dial-Up Networking (of the
computer that the wireless modem is serving) will vary according to the type of wireless service
used.
For GSM-without-GPRS, a circuit-switched data connection is used. The user can set up
DUN to make a conventional V.32 modem connection to any terminating modem at the
other end. The phone number specified in DUN can be one supplied by the wireless
service provider or another phone number related to a different dialup modem service
(e.g., a dialup modem service phone number from any commercial or private dialup
network).
For GSM-with-GPRS, a single DUN number is generally used by all of a wireless provider’s
subscribers throughout its area of coverage (regional, nationwide, continental, etc.).
Rather than being a literal phone directory number, as in conventional DUN, this is a code
that gives the modem Internet access. Normally, this phone number is *99***1# .
