Installation
Use LTE Service
After inspecting the modem and make sure everything looks fine, simply insert a micro SIM card in the SIM slot. The
SIM card must be facing down, with the cut corner to the left. Verify that your SIM card is working before inserting it in
the device. For models with two SIM slots, it does not matter which slot the SIM card is inserted. With the default
configuration, FortiOS constantly scans for available SIM cards and choose the one with connectivity.
If you are using a FortiGate 30E-GBL unit, be sure to choose a nano to micro SIM card
adapter of good quality. Bad adapters may cause the SIM card to have loose contact with the
card slot, resulting in SIM card reading errors.
Voila! The unit will now automatically connect to the wireless network and an IP will be assigned to its wwan interface:
It may take up to a few minutes for the modem to have Internet connection because the
modem will switch its firmware according to the SIM card carrier, if auto-sim configuration is
enabled (default).
Once the device is connected, use “diagnose test application lted 5” to show LTEservice information:
