Chapter 3: To use the EXPLORER 710
98-140012-H Data connection with computer, smartphone or tablet 34
Do as follows:
1. Configure the bonding settings on both terminals as described in To set up channel
bonding on page 77. Make sure bonding is enabled for both terminals.
2. Make sure both terminals are in Router mode (see To set up the connection mode on
page 74).
3. Connect a LAN cable between the two terminals, using the LAN connectors.
4. Switch on one of the two EXPLORER 710 terminals.
5. After about 20 seconds, switch on the other EXPLORER 710 terminal.
The two terminals will now find each other and decide which terminal is “master” and
which one is “slave”.
6. When the two terminals are ready, the display on the slave terminal reads Bonding slave
mode. The master terminal automatically enables bonding connection packages in the
display and in the web interface.
7. Connect your user equipment to the master terminal.
8. From the master terminal, start the bonding connection package you want to use.
For details, see To start or stop a data connection on page 33 or To control data
connections from web interface (BGAN) on page 55.
When the display of the master terminal shows that the bonding connection package is
running, you can start transmission from your connected equipment.
If, at a later stage, you want to use the “slave” terminal without the bonding function, you must
disconnect the two terminals and switch the “slave” terminal off and on again.
NSD must be disabled for the Bonding function to work (NSD is disabled by default).
See To enable or disable Network Service Device (NSD) on page 77.
When you are using the bonding function, you can only start data connections
from the master terminal.
The MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) for bonding connections is 1400 Bytes. The
connected equipment (video codecs etc.) must be set up to match this.
