System Requirements
This section lists the network subscriptions, hardware and software requirements for running the GC75 PC Card.
Network and Subscription
The network subscription you use in conjunction with your GC75 depends on the subscriptions your network operator can provide. Contact your network operator or service provider to make sure the options you require are available. Make sure that data options are included in your subscription, as these are usually optional services.
Note:
Mobile operators often provide a number of connectivity options via GPRS such as WAP and Internet, so check that the Internet or VPN service you require is enabled for your subscription.
General Packet Radio Service (GPRS)
GPRS is a new network connection which provides “always on” mobility. The connection set up is fast and, once connected, applications may send and receive data whenever required. In today’s GPRS networks, the GC75 receives data at speeds up to 53.6 kbps and transmits at speeds up to 26.8 kbps.
Short Message Service (SMS)
The PC can send and receive SMS text messages using the SMS Messages screen in the Mobilink Connect Console 75.
