If you want to connect your Apple computer to a mobile broadband service, you must first install an air card. Air cards, also called mobile broadband cards, make it possible for you to connect your desktop computer or laptop to a mobile Internet service such as AT&T, Verizon or Sprint. Air cards are available as PC cards, Express cards and USB devices. The one you choose depends on personal preference, type of slots available on your Mac and what your mobile carrier offers.
Step 1
Turn on your Mac before inserting the air card. The computer must be completely booted before continuing.
Step 2
Read the instructions provided with your air card to determine whether to insert the card or install the software first. For most air cards, you insert the card and then install the software.
Step 3
Insert your air card into an available slot on your Mac. For USB air cards, insert the device into an available USB slot; do not use a USB hub. For PC cards and Express cards, locate the slot on your Mac. Remove any slot placeholder by sliding out the plastic piece. If the slot is empty, slide in the air card until it clicks in place. The antenna should be facing up. If the card does not slide in easily, you are inserting it upside down. If your air card has a separate SIM card, insert the SIM card into the side of the Express air card before inserting the card into your Mac.
Step 5
Insert the software disk provided with the air card, if applicable. Some USB devices already have the software on the device and it will launch as soon as the device is connected the first time. Follow the prompts to install the software.
Step 6
Use the software to connect to your mobile carrier's Internet service.
Tip
- Read all instructions provided with your air card for additional steps that may be necessary to install the device and connect your Mac to the Internet.
- If your PC card or Express card has a weak signal, raise the antenna on the device to increase signal strength. Some cards do not have an external antenna.
- USB air cards are easier to remove, but PC and Express cards are easier to leave in your Mac at all times, even when you're on the go.
