Select network (Mode)
The EXPLORER 540 can use a cellular network as an alternative to the BGAN network, if you
have installed an EXPLORER 540 LTE Modem. For details, see Optional: To set up cellular
network for data on page 93.
To set up which network you want to use, do as follows:
1. In the Terminal settings page, locate Connection.
2. At Mode, select from the drop-down list which mode you want for the EXPLORER 540.
You have the following options:
• BGAN only (default): The EXPLORER 540 uses BGAN.
• Cellular modem preferred: The EXPLORER 540 uses the cellular network when it is
available, with BGAN as backup. BGAN is running in the background and is still used for
e.g. remote access with SMS. If an EXPLORER 540 Modem is not connected, or if the
cellular network does not work for some reason, the BGAN connection is used. For
details, see EXPLORER 540 operation in “Cellular modem preferred” mode on page 96.
• Cellular modem preferred (PRISM): Similar to Cellular modem preferred mode, the
EXPLORER 540 uses the cellular network when it is available, with BGAN as backup. But
with PRISM, all traffic is routed through a Multi-Path tunnel to/from a server, providing a
continuous connection through a single IP address, independent of the network
technology (cellular or BGAN).
For general information, see EXPLORER 540 operation in Cellular modem preferred
(PRISM) mode on page 97.
For setup of PRISM see To set up PRISM on page 65.
