Next and Back buttons to navigate through the
Activation Wizard, noting the following:
· Use the radio buttons to select
Manual Activation as the
method of activation you want to use.
· Obtain the billing information listed on the second
window of the wizard before phoning the service
provider or proceeding to the next window.
· Tell the representative the ESN number listed in the
wizard, and enter the information the representative
gives you, to activate and configure the AirCard.
4. Click
Finish on the final window of the wizard.
On completion of this step, the AirCard is ready for use. The

monitor your connections.
