Enabling the Phone as a Modem
TIP:
• Make sure that USB storage is turned off before enabling
the modem function. You can flick down the notification
panel and tap Turn off USB storage > Turn off USB
storage.
• The PC accesses the Internet via the phone’s mobile
network. Therefore, set up the GPRS/EDGE/3G
connection correctly before you try to use the phone as a
modem.
1. When you connect your phone to your PC with the
provided USB cable for the first time, a window will pop up
and prompt you to install the driver.
2. Double click the executable file (.exe) in the window and
follow the prompt to finish the driver installation.
NOTE: If the window doesn’t pop up automatically for
some reason, please open the new CD-ROM drive on
your PC manually and find the executable file to run it.
3. Tap on the phone Home Key > Menu Key > Settings >
Wireless & networks > Tethering & portable hotspot
and tick the USB tethering check box. A new network
connection will be created on your PC.
4. Go to Control Panel > Network on your PC to enable the
new network connection.
