Show wireless device battery instead of PC battery:
If you only selected to detect and install Wi-Fi
when installing VZAccess Manager, VZAccess Manager will display the PC's battery status in it's main
window. If you are using a WWAN device and this option is selected, the battery level of your WWAN
device will be displayed when your device is connected and detected by VZAccess Manager, as well as
when you connect and disconnect using your WWAN device. Battery Status cannot be updated while
you are connected. You can refresh the status when you are not connected, by selecting "Tools",
"Refresh Signal Levels" from VZAccess Manager's main window. Some phones fail to accurately
report their battery level to VZAccess Manager and some WWAN devices such as PC Cards do not
use batteries, so you can use this option to display the PC's battery instead.
Set Options . . . :
This is used to set various connect options. See below.
Show non-wireless accounts in list:
If you select this option all of your dial up accounts will show up
in VZAccess Manager's list of accounts, allowing you to use VZAccess Manager to launch them
instead of Dial-Up Networking. With this option unchecked, the only connections that are displayed in
VZAccess Manager's list of accounts, are the Verizon Wireless
NationalAccess - BroadbandAccess,
NationalAccess or
Quick 2 Net (14.4 kbps) connection, (depending on your wireless phone/device
capabilities) and any Wireless connections you have created, manually or with the
Copy Accounts Wizard.
If VZAccess Manager is also configured for Wi-Fi, these connections will also
be displayed when in coverage of the hot spot.
Do not prompt for user name and password:
If you are only using the Verizon Wireless
NationalAccess - BroadbandAccess, NationalAccess or Quick 2 Net (14.4 kbps) connection, this
setting has no effect. If you created Wireless connections to dial into other networks or have existing
connections you are going to launch using VZAccess Manager, checking this option will skip the
screen that normally asks for your user name and password. For this to work you will have had to
connect previously, successfully saving your user name and password.
