Using Your BlackBerry® 7130e

Using Your Device

Using Your Device as a Modem

Your device’s data capabilities enable you to use your data connection as a

modem for your desktop or laptop PC. You’ll be able to send and receive email,

browse the Internet, and access your company’s network anywhere on the

Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.

Setting Up a Data Connection With Your PC

In order to use your device as a modem, you’ll first need to load the Sprint PCS®

Connection Manager Software on your PC, then use the device’s USB cable to

connect your device to your PC.

To set up your device-to-PC data connection:

1. From your computer’s traditional Internet connection, go to www .sprint.com/

downloads, select your computer’s operating system, and download the

“Sprint PCS Connection Manager for Phone as Modem/USB Cables.” (The

software and drivers can be downloaded free of charge.)

2. Double-click on the downloaded file and follow the onscreen instructions to

install the Sprint PCS Connection Manager Software and drivers to your PC.

3. Once the software has been fully installed, connect your device to your PC

using the supplied USB cable. (Your PC will detect the connection and a

“Found New Hardware” icon may appear in your system tray.)

4. Launch the Sprint PCS Connection Manager Software and click Go to

connect.

5. Once the connection is established, launch an Internet session, check your

email, or do anything else you would do using a traditional data connection.

Tip:

When installing the software, in the “Custom Setup” window, select Install

Blackberry Drivers

in addition to the two default selections.

Note:

Before using Sprint PCS Connection Manager with your device, you must

first install and connect with the BlackBerry Desktop Software (version 4.1 or

higher). See “Installing the BlackBerry Desktop Software” on page 15 for

details.
