Step 4: Set the "Default Connection" to "Sidekick Dialer" and the "Type" to the corresponding satellite phone that your Sidekick is connected to.
Note: Select "Broadband Dialer" if you are connection to one of the following devices via a Sidekick Wi-Fi router and then select the actual device from the "Type" list:
Hughes BGAN
iFleetOn
