How to set APN Usename and Password?

Post by benm4nn »

I am trying to use a local SIM to activate my Freematics ONE+ Type B device (hologram doesn't connect), however this requires an APN username and password.

I don't see how to set this in your v5/telelogger code.
Please advise.
I tried adding these values to the config.h, but it did not work.

Code: Select all

#ifndef SERVER_HOST
// cellular network settings
#define CELL_APN "safaricom"
#define APN_USERNAME "saf"
#define APN_PASSWORD "data"

Serial output:

Code: Select all

To fix this, add a command to set the APN username and password. For SIMCom modems (like SIM7070G), use the AT command:
Set the APN: AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","<APN>"
Set username and password: AT+CGAUTH=1,1,"<APN_USERNAME>","<APN_PASSWORD>"
