Care and Maintenance

Upgrading the Card

The Ripwave Wireless Broadband Access Card is designed to give you years of trouble-free service. To ensure operation, read the following care and maintenance instructions.

Keep the Card free of dust and moisture. If the Card gets wet, use a towel to dry it immediately.

Handle the Card gently. Dropping it or mishandling it can cause damage to the metal/plastic shell or the electronic circuitry.

Keep the Card away from high temperatures. Heat can cause damage to the metal/plastic shell or the electronic circuitry.

To clean the external areas of the Card, use only an electrical contact cleaner that is non-conductible and a soft, damp, lint- free cloth. Do not use any chemicals or abrasives to clean the Card. Also use caution around the connection pins.

If there is a problem with the Card, do not attempt to repair it yourself. Report the problem to your Service Provider.

Do not apply adhesive labels to the Card. This may cause the card to become jammed inside the card slot.

The PC Card should fit easily into the PC slot. Do not force the card into the PC slot. Forcing the card into the slot may cause damage to the connector pins.

If you are going to upgrade your computer Operating System after loading the NavDiag software, you must first uninstall NavDiag prior to upgrading the OS. Otherwise, NavDiag will not work. See the Uninstall instructions in this Guide.

There are two different ways to upgrade the software that makes the Card work.

Your Service Provider may perform an over-the-air (OTA) upgrade, where the up-to-date software files are transferred wirelessly from a Base Station to your Card. This method will normally be transparent to you; in other words, you should not experience any noticeable service interruption.
