Sprint Nextel Network Router 597E Manual Do Utilizador

The connection is “active” when data transmission is occurring. If data 
transmission stops for a period of time (determined by the network), the 
connection becomes “dormant.” When you resume data traffic, the connection 
becomes active.

To monitor the status of the connection, you can use the text (page 50) and icons 
(page 45) in the Mobile Broadband window, and the icon in the system tray 
(page 54). You can also view the amount of data transferred (page 65).

The Roam Guard feature, when enabled, displays a warning message if you are 
roaming and a data connection is established or about to be established. The 
message reminds you that roaming rates may apply.

You can optionally specify which application to automatically launch 
when the connection is established. (See “Auto-launch upon Network 
Connection” on page 64.)
You can also set the connection to launch automatically whenever 
available. (See “GO automatically when ready” on page 81.) If the 
connection is lost, it is restarted automatically. If you also set Sprint 
Connection Manager to launch automatically (see “Launch when Windows 
starts” on page 79), this can provide an “always-on” connection, as long as 
you have network coverage.
You can have a connection established automatically—without running 
Sprint Connection Manager—simply by starting whatever application you 
want to use (such as your Web browser or email application). Select 

 (page 81). However, Sprint Connection Manager 

and its icon in the system tray won’t be available for you to monitor the 
status of the connection.
