Account Activation For Cellular Devices; Device Phone Number; Adding Apn Value (At&T Only) - Multitech MultiConnect Cell 100 Series User Manual

Account Activation for Cellular Devices

Some MultiTech devices are pre-configured to operate on a specific cellular network. To use the device, you must
set up a cellular data account with your service provider. Each service provider has its own process for adding
devices to their network.

Device Phone Number

Every device has a unique phone number. Your service provider supplies a phone number when you activate your
account. Wireless service provider implementation may vary. Consult with your service provider to get the phone
number for your device.
Adding APN value (AT&T only)
NOTE: This applies to AT&T users only (not for Verizon).
After properly setting up your account with your carrier and activating and installing your SIM card, you need to
add your carrier's APN (Access Point Name) into the device before the cellular modem is ready for use.
To add your APN value:
1. Establish a terminal session with the device.
2. Enter the command:
AT+CGDCONT=1,"IPV4V6","APN_Name"
(where APN_Name is the APN provided by your wireless carrier).
®
MultiConnect Cell MTC-MNA1 User Guide
Your wireless carrier assigns the APN. If you don't know the APN, contact your wireless carrier.
