The process for installing and using your Sprint Mobile Broadband USB
modem may vary slightly, depending on the operating system you are

The installation process on a Windows computer has three stages:

insert the battery into the USB modem, and insert the USB modem (see
page 4).
ⅷ “Activating Your USB Modem” — Activate your account and configure the
USB modem to use your account (see page 8).
(If you’re using your USB modem on a Mac computer, for installation
instructions see “Installing and Using the Software (Mac)” on page 23.)
