Addition(s) to LCOS 9.00 / Dual-SIM support for mobile devices |
The following tutorial shows how you manually configure devices with an internal cellular modem to use access via mobile networks (WWAN). First you either create a mobile profile for your provider or edit an existing profile, and then you assign this profile to the WAN interface of the device.
Alternatively, a simpler and faster way of configuration is available with a Setup Wizard (Set up Internet access).
In the interests of completeness this tutorial explains the creation of a new profile.
The item Profile disabled switches this mobile profile off. This option is useful if you wish to create a profile template only and complete the mobile setup at a later time.
Enter a value in seconds to find a balance between the costs arising from idle time those of connection establishment, for example 300. A value of 0 causes the device to stay connected until it is broken and terminated. With a value of 9999 the device automatically reconnects every time.
