Setting a common APN

Setting the common APN
The common APN setting is defined here and can be selected for each interface. If you are using
the same APN for many interfaces, it is easier to define it once, and then simply select it for the
relevant interfaces. Also, if you change the common APN at a later stage, it is automatically
updated for all interfaces where the Common setting is selected.
To set a common APN, do as follows:
1. Select SETTINGS > Common.
2. Select the APN. You have the following options:
• SIM default. The APN is taken from the SIM card. This is the recommended option, unless
you have special requirements.
• Network assigned. The APN is assigned from the network.
• User defined. Type in the APN. APNs are provided from the Airtime Provider.
3. If your APN uses a password, type in the user name and password provided from the Airtime
Provider.
4. Click Apply.
How to use the common APN
When you configure your individual interface, select Common to use the setting from this window.
Where Common is selected in the individual interface settings, the setting will automatically be
updated when the Common APN is changed.
