When you install BlackBerry Desktop Software, the drivers that allow the BlackBerry device to communicate through the Universal Serial Bus (USB) port and virtual COM port are installed. The Standard Modem, which is used by dial-up networking, is also installed.

This part is the most important.. There is a Tab that has a check box that lets you enter the command... I can't remember which one off the top of my head. It should be the first Tab that has the check box.
