there may be a delay of up to 10 minutes for the initial network
connection to occur.

Configuring the APN

wireless IP solution to meet the security and IP addressing 
requirements of your applications.

Public IP addresses supplied by the Internet and Proxy APNs. Only if
you have a Static or Custom IP address should you need to configure
a custom APNs.

The default APN is Internet. If you need a different APN, use
