Before You Roam

Please find below three points that you should check before you travel.

   
1.
Test the Dial Wizard before roaming
Follow the instructions for installing the iPass Dial Wizard and test its operability before you begin traveling. We also recommended you set up alternative access numbers before you begin roaming (this is a precautionary measure as some access points can occasionally be unavailable).
2.
Different modems functioning worldwide
Many countries have different telecommunications laws and practices. Check with your modem supplier to ensure your modem will be compatible with the phone systems in the country where you are traveling. Many of the older modems are not compatible from country to country. Make sure you have all compatible electrical power adapters needed for the country where you are roaming.
