Using Your Device’s Phone as a Modem

Your device’s data capabilities enable you to use your device’s phone as a modem for your
laptop computer anywhere on the Sprint Mobile Broadband network. You'll be able to send
and receive email, browse the Internet, and access your company’s network anywhere on
the Sprint National Network.

Setting Up a Data Connection With Your Computer

To use your phone as a modem, you first need to load the Sprint Connection Manager
software on your computer, and then use the sync cable to connect your device to your
computer.

To set up your phone-to-computer data connection:

Install the Sprint Connection Manager software and drivers located on the Palm
Software Installation CD.

After you install the software, connect your device to your computer using the sync
cable. (When your computer detects the connection, the

icon appears in the

taskbar in the lower-right corner of your computer screen.)

Make sure your device’s phone is turned on (see “Turning Your Device’s Phone On and

Off” on page 55) and that one of the Vision icons (

or ) appears at the top of the

screen.

Note:

To use this service, you are required to sign up on a Sprint Power Vision
with Phone as Modem plan. Go to www.sprint.com or visit a Sprint Store
for Phone as Modem plan details and more information.

Tip:

If your computer is enabled with Bluetooth® wireless technology, you
can also use your device as a wireless modem. See “Using Your Device as
a Wireless Modem” on page 174.
