Mobile Station Based Assisted GPS configuration
To access the Mobile Station Based Assisted GPS configuration screen, select the Services item from the top menu bar then the
GPS item on the left. Finally, select the MSB (A-GPS) menu item. This function is only available on models with built-in GPS
capability.
Mobile Station Based Assisted GPS (MSB A-GPS) enables your router to download GNSS data which supply orbital data to GPS
receiver, enabling it to lock to the satellites more rapidly.. The GNSS data is stored on the router to assist the GPS in locating the
router.
To set up automatic updates of GNSS data, set the A-GPS Enable toggle key to the ON position and use the drop down lists to
configure the automatic retry options. Each retry, the router checks for an updated GNSS data file and downloads the GNSS data if
newer than the currently stored data.
Note: When new GNSS data is available and the router performs an update, up to 40MB of data may be downloaded.
Please keep this in mind if your mobile broadband plan has usage restrictions.
