Shutting down the connection
The GPRS data connection can be shut down in the Dial-Up Network by selecting the
hang up button. However the PDP context is still alive. It can be stopped with the AT
command AT+CGACT.
Example:
AT+CGACT=0,<cid>
OK
When detaching with the AT+CGATT command, no GPRS data connection is possible
before reattaching.
Example:
AT+CGATT=0,<cid>
OK
Another alternative is the ATH command, which closes a data connection, deactivates the
PDP context and detaches the modem.
Example:
ATH
NOTE
The CGATT command also performs a PDP context deactivation, if the context had
not been deactivated before.
