Configure Cellular Modems and Module

31.3
It may be necessary to add a custom access point number (APN) profile if a USB modem or
cellular module does not connect automatically to a cellular network. Often this is necessary when
you are using different SIM cards in an unlocked USB modem. E.g. When using SIM cards from
various carriers in different countries. It may also be necessary to enter a SIM PIN unlock code.
Before configuring the custom access point you need to obtain the access point details from the
cellular network provider; this is normally found on their website. Usually a Telco will list internet
and MMS APN information and you need to enter the internet APN details in the codec. See
Adding Cellular Access Points

cellular module if it is locked.
