Setup Wizard - Step 2 – Mobile (APN SETTINGS)
This is where the APN settings of the SIM are entered into the router. If using a standard SIM
card (CGNAT dynamic IP), the router may auto-detect the SIM network and use a standard
APN. In this case you will notice it is not necessary to manually enter the APN settings of the
SIM into the router to get an internet connection. However, it is advised to always configure
the SIM’s correct APN settings manually, especially if using a fixed public IP SIM. If the router
auto-detects an APN for a public IP SIM, the router will have an internet connection, but it
may not have the SIM’s associated fixed public IP address.
Please note – if you don’t have the SIM’s APN settings, these can be obtained from
your SIM network or SIM provider.
Once these APN settings are saved; if the router has a SIM installed which matches the APN,
the router has antennas attached on the cell connectors, and the router is in a location
receiving signal from the SIM’s network. The router will make an internet connection.
Please note - Changing the wrong settings here can make the router fail to make an
internet connection. These settings can be obtained from the network or SIM provider.
Only change the settings instructed below, unless you are an experienced engineer
and require an advanced configuration.
