System components
Your Modem is just one part of a system designed to provide you with a wide
range of communication features. Every component of the system is needed to
enable these capabilities.
Your host computing device
Your notebook or PC hosts the Modem and runs the communication software:
your web browser or email application and Connection Manager—the Modem
enabling software.
You may also have other software on your computer that can be used wirelessly
with the Modem, such as: file transfer applications (FTP), chat or instant
messaging, a VPN (Virtual Private Network) client, client software for a corporate
server application.
The Modem
The Modem provides your computer with a connection to the CDMA wireless
network. Every CDMA network operates on one of three radio frequency bands
(450MHz, 800MHz and 1900MHz). The Modem is available in four configurations:
MV410 single-band 450MHz Modem, MV420 single band 800MHz, MV430 single-
band 1900MHz and dual-band 800/1900MHz Modem.
The Modem drivers and enabling software
Required to control, monitor, and manage your wireless connections, this includes
the AxessManager application and USB device driver.
The Modem comes with a CD containing this software:
¾
AxessManager application that you use to manage the Modem and
monitor your connections
¾
The USB device driver software that enables the Modem to work with
your computer’s operating system.
The USB driver and application software must be installed before you insert the
Modem for the first time if you choose to connect the Modem with your PC USB
port. AxessManager application is optional: you can install it at anytime or not
installing it altogether. Detailed instructions are provided in the following chapters.

A CDMA service provider account
Companies that operate CDMA networks and provide access to these networks
are called service providers. To use the Modem, you must have an account with a
CDMA service provider.
Each service provider has its own pricing options. There may be flat rate accounts,
which provide you a maximum number of minutes of network usage for a fixed
monthly fee. There may be accounts for which you are charged for network usage
by the minute or by the amount of data transmitted.
Your account may include a variety of other services such as SMS messaging.
Each Modem has been provisioned at the factory for use with a particular service
provider. This sets the Modem to use particular radio channels and enables
services specific for that provider.
The process of setting up your account is called activation. Activation involves
action by the service provider and configuration of the Modem.
The CDMA wireless network
This is the worldwide infrastructure providing the radio coverage that allows you to
stay connected. Made up of radio towers and a variety of network switches,
routers, and servers, the network is an interconnection of many service providers.
Note: More information about CDMA networks is available on the CDMA
Development Group web site, www.cdg.org.
There are CDMA networks that operate in the frequency bands supported by the
Modem throughout North America and parts of Latin America, Asia, and New
Zealand. However, each service provider operates a network that covers a limited
geographical area within the overall CDMA coverage area.
Note: Some service providers have coverage maps on their web sites.
