Figure 6.56 Driver Mode

By default, the Wireless WAN driver is enabled (the Enable driver: checkbox is checked). The driver must be disabled in order to use the modem for anything other than GPRS (e.g. dial-up data, fax, or in order to manually submit AT commands to the modem for development, testing, approvals, etc.). If the Enable driver: checkbox is not checked, the driver is shut down as soon as the OK button in the Driver Mode dialog box used.

If, on the other hand, the Wireless WAN driver is not running and the Enable driver: checkbox is checked, the Wireless WAN driver is started as soon the Driver Mode dialog box is closed using the OK button.

Note: When the driver is not running, no network status or signal strength can be displayed.

Since all currently supported GSM modems are automatically detected, the Enable automatic port detection checkbox should always be checked. If this checkbox is not checked, a serial port can be selected manually. This experimental feature allows the driver to be used with an internal GSM modem that was not recognized by the automatic detection or an external GSM modem connected to a serial port of the computer through USB or through Bluetooth. An external modem connected to a serial port must support 115.2kbit/s, 8bit, no parity and hardware flow control.
