USB EVDO Modem

A USB modem (EVDO device) is a revolutionary new way to access the Internet, while delivering the most advanced multimedia streaming services and connectivity. Almost every laptop and desktop has a USB port, so this provides you with the ability to easily move your Sprint Mobile Broadband USB Modem from platform to platform (laptop or desktop).

During Sprint PCS connections, the Sprint Mobile Broadband USB Modem is a true USB EVDO modem, functioning just like the modems familiar to most business computer users. It has an advanced dual band diversity antenna system design that incorporates an external flip antenna, maximizing data speed performance, and allows for stronger network signal reception. Once installed and configured for NDIS mode, the USB modem connects instantly to the CDMA network with just a few mouse clicks. To surf the Web, you simply connect the USB modem to a USB port, click a few buttons, and launch your Internet browser. To access your company network, you may need to launch an extranet client after you connect to the CDMA network.

Tip: To optimize your settings for faster speeds and data conservation when accessing your company network, work in “Offline”mode and synchronize periodically to send and receive company email. Do not use the Preview Pane, and save or drag and drop attachments to a desktop folder before opening them (rather than double-clicking them in the email).
