Activation Status Shows whether the router has been activated on the network.
MEID The mobile equipment identifier (MEID) of the router, a unique code for identifying devices on a CDMA network.

Metric
The metric value is used by the router to prioritise routes. The lower the value, the higher the priority. To give the
route the highest priority, set it to 0.
MTU
The maximum transmission uni (MTU) size. The default value is 1460. You should not change this value unless
instructed to by your network provider.
NAT Masquerading
NAT masquerading, also known simply as NAT is a common routing feature which allows multiple LAN devices to
appear as a single WAN IP via network address translation. In this mode, the router modifies network traffic sent
and received to inform remote computers on the internet that packets originating from a machine behind the router
actually originated from the WAN IP address of the router’s internal NAT IP address.
IP Type
The type of IP in use. SIP is a Simple IP connection and when moving between cell sectors, the PPP session is
torn down. MIP is a Mobile IP connection which creates an address which is persistent between across cell sectors
allowing the mobile connection to remain connected even when moving between cell sectors.
Profile routing settings
Network Address
The network address of the remote network. Entering the remote network address enables the router to route
traffic to that network via this particular connection profile.
Network Mask The network mask of the remote network.
