	~~If you have~~ a ~~FreedomPop card~~, ~~activate~~ your ~~card on the [http://freedompop~~.~~com/activate FreedomPop activation website]~~		====Pre-configuring the SIM card====
			Some European providers such as 1NCE and Orange may require first registering the SIM card in a phone to configure the APN and finalize activation, before transferring it to your PodiumConnect Device.

			====Configuring cellular profile====
			If you are having problems connecting, try the different cellular profiles shown on the Wireless setup page. Try the "Undefined" option if the default or regional profiles do not work.

	~~====Note about setting up FredomPop's $0/month service====~~
	~~Please note that FreedomPop is a 3rd party provider; For USA customers we are including a bundled SIM card as an optional convenience. These are the same SIM cards you can order from them separately.~~

	~~If your goal is to use the $0/month plan that includes 200MB, follow these steps:~~

	* Register the SIM card per their web site process
	* Go into your account, then downgrade and remove services as needed to get down to the "basic" free plan. There will be a number of steps to follow, with warning messages.
	* Be sure to remove any add on paid services.
	* When done, your monthly bill should show $0.

	Note, FreedomPop may require you to have a small balance in your account to cover instances if you go over the 200MB monthly allotment. If you don't go over this, then you should not have to pay an additional fee.

	~~See here fore more detailed info on [[Free_FreedomPop_Sim_Cards\|how to get free sim cards and free data from FreedomPop]].~~

	~~Any additional questions, please contact FreedomPop support.~~
