Verizon
wireless supply the PC5740 CardBus card to connect to their EVDO CDMA network.
This card is compatible with the U132, but because the Verizon
"VZAccess" dashboard software does not currently support operation
via the U132, it is necessary to make a manual connection to the Verizon
network.
When setting
up a manual connection to the Verizon network, you can follow our guide to
setting up a manual connection, but for Verizon no APN is required. (So when
you come to the last stage, you do not need to enter any CONTID information.)
The Verizon
network requires each card to be configured before it can connect to the
network. Normally the VZAccess software automatically carries out this
configuration process, but because the VZAccess software does not recognise the
card in the U132 it cannot be done in this way. This means that a brand new
PC5740 card will not connect to the Verizon network via the U132. To use the
card in your U132, you can either configure it yourself (using the VZAccess
software in another machine) or ask your Verizon dealer to do it for you. If
you've been previously using your card in another computer it will already be
configured and you don't have to worry about this step.
If you are
using the PC5740, it may repeatedly connect and disconnect immediately. The fix
is as follows:
If your PC has
a wireless local area network (WLAN) device installed, disable it prior to
clicking on the manually created Verizon Dial-up Connection icon. If any
connection problem still occurs, disable any firewall running on your PC
(especially McAffee or Norton Internet Security).
