Figure 3-13: Setup Wizard: Connection Test

Green checks in the boxes indicate the tests were successful 
and your Raven is functioning properly. At this point your 
modem is configured and activated to work on the Sprint 
network. 

Note: These tests, depending on the strength of your signal, may take
a few minutes. Initially, while the tests are being performed, there may
be red

X

s in the boxes. The Status line will give an indication of the

progress of the connection process.

If Test Modem Settings shows the status of your modem is 
“Data Connection Failed ‐ Waiting for Retry”, “No Service”, 
“No Carrier”, “Network Negotiation Failed”, “Network 
Authentication Failed”, “Modem Not Registered”, or the Reg 
Net light on the modem is not lit, double‐check your device 
activation information and return to the Activate Modem step 
to reconfigure your Raven. 

8. Data Link Configuration

Note: These screens will only be
displayed if Private Networking
Data Link is selected.

 Data Link is a special account configuration that provides a 
more secure connection for your Raven and often provides a 
static IP with authentication on an exclusive server. Consult 
your Sprint representative for details about Private 
Networking Data Link if it’s something you need for your 
account.

Before you start the configuration for Private Networking, 
Data Link, the connection to the network may be checked.
