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.

Networking rutos manual webui basic advanced mode 75.gif

General

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

Operator settings


The Operator Settings section is used to configure which operators can be allowed (Whitelist) or blocked (Blacklist).

Networking rutx12 manual mobile general operator settings v1.png

Field Value Description
Enable off | on; default: off Enables Whitelist or Blacklist for specified operator list.
Mode Whitelist | Blacklist; default: Whitelist Mode to be applied for operator list.
  • Whitelist - only allow operators in list
  • Blacklist - block all operators in list
Operator list operator list; default: none A list of operators which can be configured in Operators List page.

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.

[[File:Networking_{{{series}}}_manual_mobile_general_sim_card_settings.png|border|class=tlt-border]]

Field Value Description
Deny data roaming off | on; default: off Denies data connection on roaming conditions.
Service mode Auto | ; default: Auto Network connection type preference.
PIN integer [0000..999999999999]; default: none SIM card's PIN (Personal Identification Number) is a secret numeric password used to authenticate the device to the SIM card. PIN codes are comprised of numbers only and the length can range from 4 to 12 symbols. PIN number is saved in flash memory therefore it does not reset when default settings are restored.

SMS limit settings


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

Networking rutos manual mobile general sms limit settings.png

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.
Clear SMS Limit - (interactive button) Clears the SMS limit counter for the selected period.

Network operators

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_{{{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; default: Auto Operator selection method.
  • Auto - selects the operator automatically.
  • Manual - requires you to select the operator manually. (More on this selection below.)

Manual operator selection


To select an operator manually, specify Connection mode: Manual and click 'Scan For Operators'.

[[File:Networking_rutos_manual_mobile_network_operators_scan_process_step_1_{{{dualsim}}}.png|border|class=tlt-border]]

Will be prompted with a pop-up asking if you're sure. Click 'Yes' if you wish to proceed.

Networking rutos manual mobile network operators scan process step 2.png

Wait for the scan to finish. As indicated by the onscreen message, the process can take up to 3 minutes.

Networking rutos manual mobile network operators scan proccess step 3.png


Once the scan has finished, you will see the results in the 'Operators List'.

Networking rutos manual mobile network operators operators list.png

In order to lock the SIM card to using a single operator, place a check mark next to the relevant entry in the list and click 'Save & Apply'.

Operators list


This section is used to create lists of operators codes, which can then be used in Operator settings section to Whitelist of Blacklist them. Operator code consists of two parts - Mobile Country Code (MCC) and Mobile Network Code (MNC).

By clicking Edit Networking rutx manual edit button v1.png on a list you will be redirected to editing page in which you can enter operator codes for that list.
