LAN IP data connections in Multi user mode and Single user mode
IP data connections operate differently depending on whether you are in NAT mode or Modem
mode:
If the terminal is operating in Multi user mode, and multiple users are connected to the
•
Ethernet interface over a hub or switch, all users share the standard or streaming IP data
connection. Only one session of BGAN LaunchPad is required. Other users can open a
dedicated connection, if required.
If the terminal is operating in Single user mode, and multiple users care connected to the
•
Ethernet interface over an external router, only one user can request a standard or streaming
IP connection. Dedicated connections are not supported.
If you can't make a data connection...
If you can't open a data connection, check that the default Access Point Name (APN) is set
correctly. The APN is stored on your SIM and must be configured as the access point for each of
your data connections for the data connection to open successfully.
Tip If you want to open a dedicated streaming connection, the APN of the dedicated streaming
connection must be the same as that of the standard or streaming connection already open.
To check the default APN is set correctly:
a. Select LaunchPad Services > APN Options in BGAN LaunchPad. The APN Configuration
screen is displayed, as shown below:
b. Check the Current Default APN text box to ensure that you are connected to the correct APN.
If not, either:
• Click on Fetch from SIM.
Select the required APN from the Select APN drop-down list and click on Make default.
•
To check that the APN for a specific data connection is set to the default:
a. Select the Data tab in BGAN LaunchPad;
