Using Connection
Profiles
The Modem Manager software you have installed with your Merlin for GPRS PC
Card modem may be preconfigured with one or more Connection Profiles.
A Connection Profile consists of connection information stored by the Modem
Manager software. It contains all of the necessary data to identify your modem to
your service provider in order to access your GSM or GPRS network account.
Depending on your service provider’s requirements, your modem will use a single
pre-defined connection profile or multiple pre-defined connection profiles. You
can also create your own (user-defined) connection profiles using the Add
Connection Wizard.
Using a Single Pre-Defined Connection
Profile
If your service provider requires you to use a single pre-defined connection
profile, once you have successfully installed the Modem Manager software, no
further modem configuration will be necessary. When launched, the Modem
Manager will automatically use the single pre-defined connection profile
(previously installed by your service provider) to connect to the GSM or GPRS
network.
Using Multiple Pre-Defined Connection
Profiles
If your service provider has installed a number of pre-defined connection profiles,
once you have successfully installed the Modem Manager software, you must
select the connection profile you wish to use from the Connection Selection
window. See Figure 38.
