Modem User Manual

Section 2C: Menu Options 55
䢇 1xRTT Only: Select the 1xRTT Only option if you would like to
have Sprint Connection Manager connect to only 1xRTT
networks. When you apply this option, the next time you make
a connection Sprint Connection Manager will search for only
1xRTT networks.
Applying your Mode Preference
1. Click OK or Apply on the Settings dialog box to reset your
device. When you apply your service preference the following
dialog will appear: “Service setting was changed successfully.
Please wait while the modem is reset for the changes to take
effect.”
2. Click OK to close the dialog box. When the modem is reset
the Go button will be visible and the Sprint Connection
Manager user interface will display “Disconnected.” This may
take a moment.
Roaming Preference
The Roaming section is used to change your roaming preference.
Your coverage area and billing charges depend upon your service
and the type of account you have. There may be surcharges for
roaming service that vary based on whether you are in a preferred
roaming area or a non-preferred roaming area. If there is no
roaming agreement between Sprint and the local carrier, you may
be unable to complete calls in a non-preferred zone.
Note:
Sprint Connection Manager will always try to connect to a
Sprint CDMA 1xEV-DO network first before attempting to
connect to a 1xRTT network. 1xEV-DO networks always have
priority! If a 1xEV-DO network is unavailable then Sprint
Connection Manager will search for an available 1xRTT
network.
Tip:
If the signal strength is too weak and you are unable to
connect using 1xRTT in the 1900 MHz frequency, or if your
connection fails due to this selection, disable the setting.
