The APN is required by every Carrier in order to connect to their
networks. The APN defines the type of network the Bullet is connected
to and the service type. Most Carriers have more than one APN,
usually many, dependant on the types of service offered.

Auto APN (default) may allow the unit to quickly connect to a carrier, by cycling through a predetermined
list of common APN’s. Auto APN will not work for private APN’s or for all carriers.
Select the valid types of Carrier connections allowed. For example if
set to auto the BulletPlus will connect to any data type. If set to
WCDMA only, the BulletPlus will only allow connection to WCDMA
related technologies, and not allow the device to connect to lesser
(slower) technologies.

In some cases, a user may want to lock onto a certain carrier. There
are four options to choose from: Auto, SIM based, Manual and Fixed.
Auto will allow the unit to pick the carrier automatically. Data roaming is
permitted.
SIM based will only allow the unit to connect to the network indicated by the
SIM card used in the unit.
Manual will scan for available carriers and allow a user to select from the
available carriers. It takes 2 to 3 minutes to complete a scan.
Fixed allows a user to enter the carrier code (numerical) directly and then the
unit will only connect to that carrier.
