Cerbo GX and 4G-LTE settings


dd8b5285-73a3-4232-96d1-a36bee5b8177.jpeg

I have the Cerbo GX with the optional LTE-4G-Modem. The APN settings in the Modem settings only allows you to type in the APN name, but NOT the username and password.

I purchased an inexpensive prepaid SIM card for 365 days with 20GB of data. But I just can’t get the GX-LTE-4G modem to go online. The SIM card works fine on my iPhone if I type in the complete APN information. So I’m assuming it’s something to do with the APN. The unit detects 3 bars of the Antenna signal and the Carrier service, but the internet continues to be “offline”.

Any reason why it doesn’t let you type in the complete APN settings?

Hi @tomio,

We have just released a firmware update for the GX device v2.90 - this adds more configuration options to the GX LTE-4G modem including the ability to set a username and password.

Please update your GX device firmware and see if that resolves your issue.
