Verify Cellular Connectivity 

 

Browse to the Status screen shown below:  
 

 

 

As you can see, the unit is receiving good signal from the cellular network, it is 
connected, and has been issued an IP address.  
 
At this point, if you previously verified that your aircard worked properly in your 
PC/laptop (C120), or verified that the SIM is activated (C300), and have been accessing 
the GAU to configure your JBM gateway via its’ browser, you should be able to access 
the Internet.  
 

 

Open a browser on the PC/Laptop, and attempt to browse the Internet. 

Note: 

Depending on the provisioning of your card, particularly in corporate applications in 
which the JBM Gateway is providing cellular backup connectivity to wired circuits, your 
card may be restricted from Internet access. If this is the case, you may want to instead 
test to insure that you are able to access your corporate network. If you have any question 
as to your configuration please check with your network administration.
