To connect using a Connection profile
The router supports multiple APN profiles; these profiles allow you to configure the settings that the router will use to connect to the
3G network. By default, the "Automatically configure my mobile broadband" option is selected. This automatically detects the most
appropriate APN from the inserted SIM by querying a database on the router.
You can also manually enter the connection details by performing the following steps:
1.
Remove the check from the "Automatically configure my mobile broadband" box
2.
Select the profile that you wish to configure from the "Profile Name" drop down list.
3.
Enter the APN Name (Access Point Name) and if required, the username and password.
4.
Select Enable for the "Mobile Broadband Connection" option. If there is already another profile enabled you will need to
select that profile first and disable it since only one profile can be used at a time.
5.
Select the Authentication Type.
6.
Enter the Reconnect Delay (if needed - the default should be suitable in most cases).
7.
Enter the number of Reconnection attempts the router should make.
8.
Enter the network metric for the connection.
9.
Select to enable or disable NAT Masquerading for the connection.
10.
Click Save.
To confirm successful connection
Click on the Status menu item at the top of the page to return to the Status page.
If the Mobile Broadband connection has been established successfully, the WWAN status will be "Up". The IP Address field shows
the current IP address that the network has allocated for the router. The mobile broadband internet connection is now ready to use.
Restoring the Automatic Configuration option after manually configuring an APN profile
When you have manually configured an APN and want to have the router automatically configure your broadband connection again,
you must first set "Mobile Broadband Connection" to Disable for that profile and then remove the APN Name from the "APN Name"
field and click "Save". This is because the router saves the manually configured APN profile in flash memory and will always try to
connect to that APN first regardless of whether "Automatically configure my mobile broadband" is enabled.
