Before
You Roam
Please find below three points that you should check before you travel.
- 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).
- 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. For some comprehensive information
about international phone systems, please see: http://www.teleadapt.com/ .
- Updating
your Dial Wizard
Before you begin roaming, consult with your home Internet service provider to
make sure you have the most recent release of the iPass Dial Wizard. This will
ensure you have the current access numbers before you roam. iPass adds new phone
numbers regularly.

service is brought to you
