Important Information
Regarding WWAN Service Providers
It is important to understand that not all WWAN service providers operate in the
same way or support all the same feature sets. There may, for example, be
bandwidth constraints or networking limitations. Before purchasing a WWAN PC
card and service plan, make sure the WWAN service provider offers support for
the features you need.
Before committing to a service contract with a WWAN service provider, it may
be helpful to ask these questions:
• What types of traffic are allowed over the WWAN network?
• Do they offer “static” or “dynamic” IP addressing?
• Are there any inbound connection limitations?
• Are single or multiple hosts allowed?
• Do they support VPN traffic?
• What are the data transfer limits (inbound and outbound)?
• What are common data transfer speeds and how much of the
coverage area supports 3G or faster technology?
