If the SIM card is protected with a PIN and an incorrect PIN number is entered, the ip.buffer will
try once only. If the entered PIN number gives an error, the internal PIN number is erased (but you
will still see “*******” on the web). The ip.buffer Log will record that the PIN attempt failed. This is
to prevent the SIM card getting locked completely!
