Frequency Band

GSM operates in a number of different frequency bands, where available. 900 and 1800 MHz are used in Europe, Asia, Australasia and Africa, whilst the 1900 MHz band is used in North and South America. By default your GC79 operates in 'tri-band' mode and automatically finds available networks in any of these frequency bands. It is not recommended to change this setting. See GSM Performance and technical characteristics on page 68 for a list of GSM frequency ranges.

Forward (Divert) Calls

Note:

The GC79 does not make or answer voice calls. The forward function enables you to send a voice call to an alternative number where it can be answered. For example, the mobile network voicemail service. However you can make and answer fax and data calls, providing you have appropriate software on your PC to handle them.

Voice

You can use the Call forward service to forward your voice calls to another phone number.
