Chapter 2: Activating the Modem
TheBT-2010 connects to the wireless network the same way a cell
phone does. Each modem is an account on the wireless network. The
network service provider assigns the modem a user name and
password, an access point name, and in some cases a static IP address
and others.
This chapter shows you how to activate the modem:
•
Using BlueTree’s BlueVue software,
• Using AT commands.
It also shows you how to setup a:
•
Windows Dial-Up Networking session,
• HyperTerminal session to check that the modem is operating
correctly.
Using BlueVue
Activating the modem
To access your service provider’s GPRS wireless data network, you
need a User Profile. User Profiles contain configuration settings such as
APN (Access Point Name), userid and others.
BlueVue provides User Profiles for various GPRS service providers. User
Profiles are automatically configured and available when you select the
specific GPRS service provider during the installation of BlueVue.
No further activation is required once you start BlueVue.
Using Microsoft
DUN (Dial-Up
Networking)
NOTE: The following section is only required if you do not intend to use
BlueVue to manage your data connections.
You can create a DUN script to establish data connections. Using DUN is
a two-part process. First you add the modem to the system, then you
create the DUN profile.
