Preparation:

Please make sure that the 3G Wireless Manger was at least opened once, configured according to the used SIM and a connection is basically possible. This is also to make sure that the APN  is correctly set. If your SIM card is secured by a SIM PIN, it's required to either store the SIM PIN permanently into the SIM card or to unlock the device by an automatic SIM PIN input.

1. The Wireless Manager has an option to store the SIM PIN permanently. Please consult the help file of the Wireless Manager for details.
   Everyone who gets physically access to the SIM card can use it, because the SIM PIN will be stored into the SIM card. Therefore, we do not recommend this option.
   
   
2. It's also possible to input the SIM PIN automatically by configuring the 3G modem.
   Open the device manager and double click on "Toshiba F3507g Mobile Broadband Modem" or the "Toshiba Broadband (3G HSDPA) SM-Bus Minicard Modem"
   
   
   
   
   
   
3. Under "Extra initialization commands" write " AT+CPIN="your SIM PIN" "
   
   
4. Click OK
   
   
5. Reboot
   
   
6. From now one, the SIM PIN is input automatically during the boot up process and there should not be a request from the SIM PIN any more.

Please note: The SIM PIN is not stored into the SIM card, so in case a not authorized person gets access to the SIM card, it's not usable for him.
