Using a non-Vodafone Global SIM
When using a non-Vodafone Global SIM, the MachineLink 3G Router gives you the option of turning Automatic APN selection on or
off. By default, Profile 1 is configured with
Profile1 and Automatic APN set to ON.
When Automatic APN selection is turned on, the router selects an appropriate APN from an internal database of known APNs. If the
SIM you have inserted into the router is not of a known carrier, you may need to manually enter an APN to obtain a network
connection. See manually configuring a connection profile for details on entering an APN manually.
To see the automatically selected APN, view the Status page.
