Configuring a Data Connection

Configure the device before making a cellular data connection. Configuration changes are saved automatically.
Note: Configure the data connection when initially setting up the device, when changing SIM card, or if
recommended by your carrier.

Configuring Packet Data Protocol

Use a Packet Data Protocol (PDP) context to configure the device to use your carrier's packet data services.
Multiple PDP contexts are stored in an ordered list. Generally, a carrier approves only one PDP context in the list to
configure and use for a data connection with their network.
To view the current PDP context list use the following AT command:
AT+CGDCONT?`
Example
AT+CGDCONT?
+CGDCONT: 1,"IPV4V6","","0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0",0,0,0,0
+CGDCONT: 2,"IPV4V6","vzwadmin","0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0",0,0,0,0
+CGDCONT: 3,"IPV4V6","vzwinternet","0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0",0,0,0,0
+CGDCONT: 4,"IPV4V6","vzwapp","0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0",0,0,0,0
+CGDCONT: 5,"IPV4V6","vzwclass6","0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0",0,0,0,0
+CGDCONT: 6,"IPV4V6","vzwiotts","0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0",0,0,0,0
OK`
Before configuring a PDP context use the following to stop the device from automatically connecting to the cellular
network and registering:
AT+COPS=2
After configuring the PDP context(s) use the following to resume automatic connection and registration:
AT+COPS=0

Configuring APN

The Access Point Name (APN) is a string in the PDP context that defines the network path for cellular data
connectivity. The APN must match the carrier's value provided with the SIM
Configuring Verizon APN
Verizon automatically pushes the necessary PDP context details, including the APN, to the device. If the APN is not
pushed automatically, use the following AT commands to set the APN.
AT+COPS=2
AT+CGDCONT=1,"IPV4V6","<APN>"
AT+COPS=0
Where < APN> is the APN Verizon provided with the SIM.
Verizon Example
AT+COPS=2
