Common Settings
With the parameter Operator selection you can define how to select the mobile radio pro-
vider:
• with selection automatic (default) the operator is read from the SIM card
• with selection manual the operator must be entered according to the corresponding SIM
card; the operator list can be read out from the SD card, if the parameter GPRS log is set
to operator list.
The entry for SIM PIN is needed if the SIM card is PIN protected. An empty PIN (default) cor-
responds to an unlocked SIM.
With parameter APN the acccess point name can be configured. If no APN is entered, then the
default APN is used implicitly during the PDP context activation (acccess point name from
provider).
The PPP authentication is required depending on the operator’s policy in particular APNs.
If authentication is needed, then PPP user name and PPP password have to be entered.
