Wireless Access

Hello I'm trying to use a 155 as a RAP and have the USB use a modem.  The Modem I'm tring to use is a Verizon MiFi 6620L but I am having problems getting it to connect correclty.  If the 6620L will not work will the Verizon MiFi 620L work.  Thanks!

The Novatel U620L for Verizon is defined as a supported modem on RAP-155(P) with the following minimum SW versions:

- AOS: 6.3.1.19, 6.4.4.2, 6.5.0.0, 6.5.1.0, 6.5.2.0, 8.0.1.0, 8.1.0.0

- Instant: 4.2.1.0

No mention of the 6620L

Thanks Onno,

We finally Got everything in and our WIB (Wifi in a Box) works great!  Side note to everyone else.  The a brand new U620L needs to be intiated on a computer first.  It has a setting to set before the U620L will connect to the internet.

Is there a document that says how to provision the USB parameters on the RAP for this modem?

MiFi USB730L appears to be a newer replacement, but I haven't found a document for either that specifies the USB parameters on the RAP.

Thank You,

David

Hello Beeliada,

Here is an artical that might help.

Also I would make sure the modem work on something else first.  The problem I had with mine is that I had to activate the modem on a computer before it would work.  Testing it a head of time will also help you find a good location for it to connect back.  It can take some time for the access point to finish connecting.  When testing / upgrading the AP I'll normally plug it up were I know it has a good signal and set it sit there for about 10 minutes before going back to it.

Hope this helps.
