Obtaining Cellular Service for the RV50X
2-3
Step 2
The cellular plan must support a public IP address so that
you can access and control the system remotely. (Often
cellular providers block incoming connection requests to a
SIM with a dynamic IP address.) Check with the cellular
provider to assure that incoming connection requests are
allowed.
• If the plan does not have a public IP address you will not
be able to access and control the system. However, you
can still upload files to SFTP or Dropbox using a static IP
address or alternative dynamic IP with Dynamic Domain
Name Service (DDNS) as an alternative.
Step 3
Request the APN from your cellular provider. You will need
this to configure your system for remote use.
