Work through these checks
Open the local interface
Use the configured WLAN and open the terminal’s local address; factory default is 192.168.0.1. Ask the administrator if changed.
What the result means: If unavailable, resolve local access first.
Read warnings and registration
A yellow or red Status light directs you to the web interface. Record the alert and BGAN state. Refer unresolved PIN or registration issues to the account owner.
What the result means: Do not erase the diagnostic evidence with a reset.
Inspect the data connection
In Terminal Access or the web interface, inspect the intended package. This guide’s default requires manual data start. Use only the owner-approved package; Streaming continues charging by connection time until stopped.
What the result means: Registration and an active data connection are separate checks.
When to stop and get help
Do not test Streaming, guess PINs or reset first. Keep clear of the transmitting antenna and preserve active communications.
What to tell support
Record the network, warning and package name before changing anything.
