Mobile Wan Connection Configuration - Lucom lr77 v2 Configuration Manual

Item
MRU
MTU
The following list contains tips for working with the Mobile WAN configuration form:
If the MTU size is set incorrectly, then the router does not exceed the data transfer. When
you set the MTU value low, more frequent fragmentation of data occurs. More frequent
fragmentation means a higher overhead and also the possibility of packet damage during
defragmentation. On the contrary, a higher MTU value can cause the network to drop
the packet.
If the IP address field is left blank, when the router establishes a connection, then the
mobile network carrier automatically assigns an IP address. If you assign an IP address,
then the router accesses the network quicker.
If the APN field is left blank, then the router automatically selects the APN using the IMSI
code of the SIM card. If the PLMN (operator number format) is not in the APN list, then
the router uses the default APN "internet". The mobile network carrier defines the APN.
If you enter the word blank in the APN field, then the router interprets the APN as blank.
ATTENTION:
If only one SIM card is installed in the router (or the router has one only one
SIM card slot), the router switches between the APN options. A router with
two SIM cards switches between SIM cards.
The correct PIN must be filled in. SIM cards with two APNs will use the same
PIN for both APNs. An incorrect PIN can block the SIM card.
Parameters identified with an asterisk require you to enter the appropriate information only
if this information is required by the mobile network carrier.

Description
Specifies the Maximum Receive Unit which is the maximum size of a
packet that the router can receive in a given environment. The default
value is 1500 B. Other settings can cause the router to incorrectly trans-
mit data.
Specifies the Maximum Transmission Unit which is the maximum size
of a packet that the router can transmit in a given environment. The de-
fault value is 1500 B. Other settings can cause the router to incorrectly
transmit data.
