before you can connect.
Windows
Once the software is successfully installed and the profile is set up, the AirCard
USB Modem is ready to use.
The first time you insert the AirCard USB Modem in the computer, it takes a few
seconds for it to locate the network. While the AirCard USB Modem is scanning
for a network, the Connect button is unavailable.
Note: The AC341U will auto-connect when a supported network is detected.
When you use the AirCard USB Modem with the same computer, TRU-Install
verifies that the correct software is already installed. This process may take a few
seconds.
To end a high-speed connection:
• In Watcher, click
Disconnect.
• Use the Web user interface (if available for your device) to disconnect.
If you need to re-install the Watcher software, see page 9.
