Software
The MP modem comes with the following software:
•
3G Watcher, the software for the MP modem which allows
you to manage and monitor your connections.
•
The driver that forms the interface between the MP
modem and your Windows operating system.
•
The firmware that is stored in non‐volatile memory.
The MP modem has an embedded radio module (a
Mini Card 5725), also made by Sierra Wireless, Inc. There
are two firmware programs on the MP modem—one
stored on the controller board of the MP modem and one
on the radio module.
The firmware was loaded into the radio module and con‐
troller board when the MP modem was assembled. As new
versions of the software and firmware are released, they
are posted at
