Not insert
Remove the data card from the 3G modem
and insert the SIM card. After the SIM card
is installed properly, insert the data card.
NOTE
The SIM card is not hot swappable.
Wait about 1 minute until the data card completes initialization. If a 3G call still fails, go
to step 4.
NOTE
There are two ways to initiate dialing:
l
Triggered by data traffic: For example, when you attempt to open a web page, data traffic is
transmitted to the 3G interface. The 3G interface then triggers dialing.
l
Automatic dialing: If you run the
dialer number
*99# autodial
(WCDMA) or
dialer number
#777 autodial
(CDMA2000) command in the interface view, the system automatically connects
to the 3G network.
Step 4
Check whether the AR installed with a 3G card is in the 3G coverage area.
Use another 3G device, such as a 3G mobile phone, to check whether the 3G signal is normal.
l
If the 3G mobile phone cannot receive wireless signals, the phone is out of the 3G network
coverage area. Check that the Radio Access Network (RAN) is working properly.
l
If the 3G mobile phone successfully makes a call, go to step 5.
Step 5
If a WCDMA network is used, check whether the profile is properly configured on the 3G
modem.
Run the
display cellular
interface-number
all
command. If the following information is
displayed, no 3G modem profile is configured. Configure a 3G modem profile on the AR.
