Phone As Modem (PAM) allows you use your phone as a high-speed internet connection for your laptop computer anywhere on the Sprint network. Simply connect your phone using a USB cable or the built-in connection on Bluetooth-enabled phones

The PRL is the Preferred Roaming List. It is a file in your phone that has a list of all roaming providers Sprint works with. When a phone cannot find a Sprint signal, it checks the PRL for the first available provider. Keeping the PRL up-to-date is not critical. However, savvy users choose to update their PRLs because it provides for faster roaming signal acquisition, improved international roaming, and, on EV-DO devices, better acquisition of EV-DO data services.

To update your PRL, contact data support or call customer service and ask to be transferred there. Customer service is generally not informed on PRL updates and may not be able to assist you directly. The rep must "flag" your account for an update. Then you must then dial *2 on the your device. The *2 system will detect if your phone needs to be updated, and will route you to the proper system to update your device.

This is the most common error. Your phone cannot get the login info it needs from Sprint's provisioning server. This happens most commonly on a phone that was just activated. The solution is usually to wait. If the problem is still there after eight to twelve hours, contact data support to troubleshoot the issue.
