Everyday Basics
After you install the MobiLink
TM
software and set up your Novatel
Wireless Broadband device for first time use, it’s time to get down to
the everyday basics. The following steps provide a roadmap of typical
usage activities. Use it as a guide and customize it according to your
needs.
1
Start MobiLink.
MobiLink is the communications software you use to 
connect to the cellular network and to send and to 
receive SMS. 
Double click the MobiLink icon on your desktop 
to start the application.
The LED on your device will display a solid green light
while it searches for available networks. 
When a network is found and attached to, the light on the 
LED will begin to flash green
. The message on the MobiLink
control panel will change to “Ready”.
You’ll find a complete list of LED colors and related states 
on page 37.
Want to have MobiLink start automatically each time you 
start your computer? See page 11 for instructions.
