Specifications

NOTE: There are limitations with sending texts via email. The SMS engine is currently only compatible with GSM-based carrier operators.
1. Start a new email message.
2. In the To field, enter the modem’s MDN plus the modem’s carrier domain name (e.g., [e-mail]).
3. Enter the password and command in either the Subject field or Body of the email message. If you use the subject field, leave the body blank, and if you use the
body, leave the subject blank.
NOTE: The subject field may be limited to a certain number of characters, so if you get an error when sending the command on the
subject line, switch to using the body instead.)
SMS Commands
Below is a list of supported SMS messages and the syntax format.
Due to security concerns, the set of commands are intentionally limited to those that can configure a modem’s connection, but cannot lock the administrator out due to
malicious modem changes. Therefore, if an unsolicited request adjusts the modem’s configuration via SMS, an administrator can still access the modem via SMS.
Command syntax:
<password>,<command>,[arg1,][arg2,]
All commands start with the password – either the default of the last 8 digits of the router's MAC address or the administrator-configured password. Commands can have an
optional number of arguments.
NOTE: The trailing comma on the command is important to allow the SMS engine to distinguish the final argument from other information
the SMS client might append to the message without your knowledge.

<password>,reboot,

1234,reboot,
restore – Restore the router to factory defaults
