There is not sufficient signal strength to connect.
If low signal strength is displayed in the Sprint SmartView window, move to a location with better coverage. For a map of coverage in your area, using an alternate Internet connection browse the Sprint Power Vision Coverage search tool, enter your zip code, and click Go.
Sprint SmartView has encountered a problem.
The Sprint SmartView software and/or the Dial-Up Networking connection associated with it may have been corrupted.
