Choosing another network:
1. Uncheck Automatically choose a network for me.
2. Select the network that you want to use.
3. Click Apply to transfer the setting to your EDGE PC Card.
The message Please wait appears briefly on the screen. If you are not allowed to use the network
that you have chosen, Forbidden is displayed.
Note:
GPRS is commonly available in GSM networks, but fewer roaming agreements are in place.
You may therefore need to explicitly select one of the available networks in order to use GPRS
when abroad. Check with your home operator to find out which networks are GPRS roaming
partners in the country or region in which you want to roam.
Preferred Network
Note:
This option is only available if your operator provides it.
A list of preferred networks is stored on the SIM card. This is typically set up by your mobile operator
as part of SIM manufacture. Preferred roaming partners are placed in the list so that you have the
greatest range of available services when roaming. When the home network is not available, the EDGE
PC Card will check the available networks against the preferred network list and select the one placed
highest. Automatic network selection must be enabled.
If you want to add a new network:
1. Click Add, a new dialog with all the networks known to the EDGE PC Card appears on the screen.
2. Select the network that you want to add and click OK.
3. Click Apply to transfer the setting to your EDGE PC Card’s SIM card.
If you want to delete a network from the list:
1. Select the network that you want to delete.
2. Click Remove.
3. Click Apply to transfer the setting to your EDGE PC Card’s SIM card.
If you want to re-arrange the order of the networks listed:
1. Select the network that you want to move.
2. Click the Move Up or Move Down arrows to rearrange the order.
3. Click Apply to transfer the setting to your EDGE PC Card’s SIM card.
Note:
If the list of preferred networks is full, the Add button is disabled (grey).
Forward Calls (Divert)
Note:
The EDGE PC Card does not make or answer voice calls. The forward function enables you
to send a voice call to an alternative number where it can be answered. For example, the
mobile network voicemail service. However you can make and answer data calls, providing
you have appropriate software on your PC to handle them.
