DO NOT PLUG IN CARD YET

FIRST be connected to the internet. WIFI ethernet dialup whatever.

Install Sprint Smartview
it will say it doesn't recognize operating system... go ahead and let it finish then restart.

Then install the driver from sierra wireless at the address below

You need to be connected to the internet so that it can download drivers from MS During these installs.

REBOOT

Plug in your card and start Smartview

ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
