The information in this page is updated in accordance with firmware version .


Summary

The Mobile page is used to configure mobile connection settings.

This manual page provides an overview of the Mobile page in {{{name}}} devices.

If you're having trouble finding this page or some of the parameters described here on your device's WebUI, you should turn on "Advanced WebUI" mode. You can do that by clicking the "Advanced" button, located at the top of the WebUI.

General

The General section is used to configure SIM card parameters that define how the device will establish a mobile connection.

SIM card settings


The SIM Card Settings section is used to configure main SIM card parameters. Refer to the figure and table below for information on the fields contained in that section.

Field Value Description
Auto APN on | off; default: on Auto APN scans an internal APN database and selects an APN based on the SIM card's operator and country. If the first automatically selected APN doesn't work, it attempts to use the next existing APN from the database ( APN database )
APN string; default: none An Access Point Name (APN) is a gateway between a GSM, GPRS, 3G or 4G mobile network and another computer network. Depending on the contract, some operators may require you to use an APN just to complete the registration on a network. In other cases, APN is used to get special parameters from the operator (e.g., a public IP address) depending on the contract.
An APN Network Identifier cannot start with any of the following strings:
  • rac;
  • lac;
  • sgsn;
  • rnc;
it cannot end in:
  • .gprs;
and it cannot contain the asterisk symbol (*).

Phone number integer; default: none A phone number to send warning SMS message to
Clear collected data - (interactive button) The data collected for this interface will be cleared, but only if the interface is active

SMS limit


The SMS Limit section provides you with the possibility to set up a maximum sent SMS message cap for your SIM card.

[[File:Networking_rutos_manual_mobile_limit_sms_limit_{{{dualsim}}}.png|border|class=tlt-border]]


To configure SMS Limit press Edit

Field Value Description
Enable SMS Limit off | on; default: off Turns SMS limiting on or off.
SMS limit count integer; default: none Sets the SMS sending cap, i.e., how many SMS messages can be sent from this SIM card during the specified period.
Period Day | Week | Month; default: Day Period for which SMS limiting should apply. After the period expires, the SMS limit counter will be reset.
Reset time 0-23 / Monday - Sunday / 0-31; default: 0 Starting hour of the day / day of the week / day of the month for SMS limiting period.
Clear SMS Limit - (interactive button) Clears the SMS limit counter for the selected period.


Network selection

The Network operators section provides you with the possibility to scan for and manage mobile network operators to which the device's SIM card can connect to.

[[File:Networking_rutos_manual_mobile_network_operators_scan_dualsim_{{{dualsim}}}.png|border|class=tlt-border]]

Field Value Description
Current operator string; default: none Displays the name of the operator the which the device is currently connected.
Connection mode Auto | Manual | Manual-Auto; default: Auto Operator selection method.
