Change NAM Selection +WNAM
Description: This command is used to request a change in the NAM (Number Assignment Modem) selection. The
modem supports up to 4 NAMs. However, if a NAM is not fully programmed, the modem will not switch to
the requested NAM. The default NAM for the modem is 1. The response to this command is only OK, and is
no guarantee that the NAM will change. If the NAM selection request is accepted, the unsolicited command
+WNAM: <nam> will be returned. If or when the actual NAM changes, the unsolicited command +WCNM:
<nam> will be returned. See Unsolicited Result Codes in Chapter 21.
