ACTIVATE YOUR MODEM
A wireless broadband data plan must be activated on your MC100W modem.
The process of initiating a carrier plan with your modem is called Activation.
Wireless broadband data plans are made available from wireless carriers, such as
Sprint and Clear, and are required to allow your modem to connect and transfer
data on their network.
Your modem may already be activated. Check with your vendor for the activation
status and follow their advice, if needed.
If your modem is not yet active or your vendor is unable to activate the modem,
go to www.cradlepoint.com/mc100w for more information.
The MC100W is designed to be used exclusively with compatible CradlePoint routers
and adapters.

The MC100W is a plug-and-play device. Simply attach the modem to the CradlePoint
router or adapter and connect. The modem will connect if WiMAX technology is available
in your area.
