About Your Direct Connect Number
Your Sprint phone allows you two different options for
your Direct Connect number:
1.
Separate numbers (
DC Only
) — Your Direct Connect
number is a unique number (not your wireless
number). It will be made up of three sets of digits
separated by asterisks (for example, 444*5555*111).
2.
A single number (
Mobile + DC
) — Your Direct
Connect number is the same as your wireless
number (for example, 555-555-1234).
Dialing Direct Connect Numbers
Ⅲ
If the person you are calling has a separate
number for Direct Connect, make sure you dial
any asterisks (*) in the number. If you are saving
the number in your Contacts, choose
DC Only
for
the phone type.
Important
When the Direct Connect feature is active,
both the On/Off and Net Guard features are
disabled (
Settings > More... > Data
).
Note
If the Net Guard feature is ever enabled, this indicates
that Direct Connection is no longer active on your
account. Enabling Net Guard can interfere with Direct
Connect functionality.
