To install a USB modem:
STEP 1 Connect the USB modem. If the modem is supported, it is automatically detected
and appears on the Mobile Network page.
STEP 2 Select Auto or Manual connection mode. Ethernet Connection Recovery works
only if the Connect Mode is set to Auto.
• To enable your modem to establish a connection automatically, select Auto
mode. If you select Auto, you must also either set a Connect on Demand time
or select Keep Alive. Connect on Demand terminates the Internet connection
after it is inactive for the specified period of time (Max Idle Time).
If your Internet connection is terminated due to inactivity, the modem to
automatically re-establishes a connection when a user attempts to access
the Internet. In the Max Idle Time field, enter the number of minutes of idle
time that can elapse before the Internet connection terminates. Choosing
Keep Alive keeps the connection up at all times.
• To connect or disconnect your modem connection manually, select Manual
mode.
The device displays the current modem connection status that includes initializing,
connecting, disconnecting, or disconnected.
STEP 3 Verify that the Card Status field shows your mobile card is Connected.
