Hi,
Your guess is correct, I am using it as an IAP with one Airtel 3G Huawei usb modem as internet connectivity. In the IAP dashboard it shows that the Uplink is '3G/4G but the status is down. I am using the below parameters to configure the modem.
USB Dev---0x12d11506-------i have collected this parameter with the help of USBView application from microsoft. I had connected the modem with my laptop when collecting the info.
USB init---AT+CGDCONT=1,'IP','airtelgprs.com'
USB tty---ttyUSB0
USB dial---ATDT*99#
As per the following URL---http://www.arubanetworks.com/support-services/interoperability, the modem in question is supported and is semi plug and play meaning i have to select the country code and service provider rest it will take care of its own. This does not work. The radio does not come up.
On feeding the above mentioned values the radio comes up but my laptop does not get an IP from the controller. I had to configure the IP parameter in the PC then it connects to the SSID.
Can you share with me some troubleshooting tips? Is there any way to manually dial the USB modem instead of rebooting the IAP or waiting for a substantial period for the IAP to redial.
I have also upgraded my firmware to 6.2 version. Please share with me the user guide as there is some error while downloading from support.arubanetworkscom
