Command Description
Network Credentials 1x/EVDO
Mobile IP Mobile IP (MIP) Preferences. On a Mobile IP network, a device connects to the network using PPP.
During the negotiation process the AirLink device is NOT required to present a username and
password to authenticate because the authentication parameters are stored in the device itself.
• Disabled, SIP only
• MIP Preferred
• MIP Only
Default: MIP is used when available with a fall back to SIP.
Note: Your account with your Mobile Network Operator may not support all three of these options.
check with your Mobile Network Operator as to which one should be used.
EV-DO
Diversity
EV-DO Diversity allows two antennas to provide a more consistent connection.
• Disable
• Enable (default)
If you are not using a diversity antenna, diversity should be disabled.
Note: This field is not available in all AirLink devices.
EV-DO Data
Service
Change the allowable network type:
• EV-DO Preferred — can “fall back” on CDMA/1x
• EV-DO Only — fall back disabled
• 1x Only — EV-DO disabled
Note: For most users, it’s best to leave the default setting (EV-DO Preferred). When this option is
selected, your AirLink device connects to an EV-DO network if it is available and falls back to a
CDMA 1x network if EV-DO service is not available. If you choose another option and the selected
network is not available, the device will not be able to connect to the cellular network. For example,
if you select EV-DO Only and you are in an area where there is no EV-DO network available, the
device will not be able to connect to a cellular network until you change this setting.
Network
Roaming
Preference
Allows you to control whether or not roaming (connecting to a mobile broadband network other than
that of your Mobile Network Operator). Options are:
• Automatic—The device connects to the home network if it is available and to another Mobile
Network Operator’s network if the home network is not available (for example you are outside
the coverage area).
Note: Roaming charges may apply.
• Home Only—The device only connects to the home network. If the home network is not
available (for example, if you are outside the coverage area) the device does not connect until
the home network is available again.
