Update/Activate a Modem
Some 3G modems can be updated and activated while plugged into the router. Updates and activation methods vary by
modem model and service provider. Possible methods are: PRL Update, Activation, and FUMO. All supported methods
will be displayed when you select your modem
and click “Update/Activate”. If no methods are displayed for your device
then you will need to update and activate your device externally.
To update or activate a modem, select the device and click
“Control”.
The modem
does not
support Update/Activate methods:
A
message will state that there is no support for PRL Update,
Activation, or FUMO.
The modem supports Update/Activate methods:
A message
will display showing options for each supported method:
Modem Activation / Update:
Activate, Reactivate, or
Upgrade Configuration.
Preferred Roaming List (PRL) Update
Firmware Update Management Object (FUMO)
Click the appropriate icon to start the process.
If the modem is connected when you start an operation the
router will automatically disconnect it. The router may start
another modem as a failover measure. When the operation is
done the modem will go back to an idle state, at which point the
router may restart it depending on failover and failback settings.
NOTE: Only one operation is supported at a time. If you try to start the
same
operation on the
same
modem twice the UI will not report failure and the
request will finish normally when the original request is done. However if you
try to start a
different
operation or use a
different
modem, this second request
will fail without interfering with the pending operation.
