Cell Settings
Disabled
: If selected, disables the cellular interface. Default is enabled
for DHCP.
Obtain from DHCP
: Acquires IP address and subnet mask from DHCP.
If the cellular modem is configured for DHCP and is used as the Fail-over
Gateway, when the IP address of the cellular modem changes, the IP
address of the Fail-over Gateway will be automatically updated to be the
same as the new cellular modem IP address.
If the DHCP IP address is used as the
Local IP Address
of VPN, when
the IP address of the cellular modem changes, the IP address of
Local IP
Address
of VPN will be automatically updated to be the same as the new
cellular modem IP address.
IP Address
(view only) An IP address acquired via DHCP.
Subnet Mask
(view only) The network segment acquired via DHCP.
APN of Cellular Carrier
Configure the Access Point Name for the cellular carrier. May have up to
256 characters.
Reboot Modem
Select this option to restart the cellular modem. It is recommended that
the modem be restarted after firmware update, after changing the state of
the SIM Card PIN Lock, and after changing the PIN # for SIM Card.
Cellular Network Username

The login may have up to 32 characters, and the password may have up
to 64 characters. The Cellular Network Password displays the current
password masked.
Cell Network Auth
Specify the type of authentication to be used for connecting to the cellular
carrier. This is to be configured only if your carrier has setup the APN with
a user name and password. The authentication type specifies the security
protocol to be used for sending your user name and password to the
server to establish a connection. The supported protocols are PAP
(Password Authentication Protocol) and CHAP (Challenge Handshake
Authentication Protocol), with CHAP considered to be more secure.
