Sprint Connection Manager
Sprint Connection Manager is an application that allows you to manage and 
monitor the high-speed Sprint Power Vision (1xEV-DO) and Sprint Vision (1X) 
connections using your Windows computer. Use Sprint Connection Manager to:
Determine your signal strength and other network connection parameters (page 45).
Access Sprint Location Services (page 55).
Starting Sprint Connection Manager
To start Sprint Connection Manager:
1. Ensure the card is inserted into your computer’s ExpressCard or PC Card slot, 
with the Sprint label facing up.
2. Double-click the program’s icon (
) on your desktop, or, from the Start menu 
on your Windows desktop, select:
(Windows Vista or Windows XP) All Programs > Sprint > Sprint Mobile Broadband 
(Sierra)
.
(Windows 2000) Programs > Sprint > Sprint Mobile Broadband (Sierra).
When Sprint Connection Manager is running, it places an icon (
) in the system 
tray, usually at the right end of the taskbar. If Sprint Location Services are 
supported and enabled, then a second icon (
) is displayed in the system tray. 
Tip:
Without running Sprint Connection Manager, you can make a data connection or, if 
your device supports GPS, use NMEA output simply by starting whatever application 
you want to use (such as your Web browser, email, or mapping application). 
Prerequisites: you must have previously selected, in Sprint Connection Manager, 
Enable Network Adapter (NDIS)
Auto Start GPS on 
connect

Sprint Connection Manager.

You can also set Sprint Connection Manager to launch automatically 
whenever Windows starts. (See “Starting Sprint Connection Manager 
Automatically” on page 45.)
