may be connected to the SMA connector labeled AUX.
Note: Use of dual-band cellular antennas is preferred.
Carrier Selection
Step 1 From the Home page, select Cell Connection from the Main Navigation Panel
and select the Carrier tab. In the Carrier section, select your carrier(s) from available
carriers listed. Note: You cannot select the same carrier for primary and secondary.
Sprint Subscribers
Sprint is capable of automatic OMA-DM provisioning. Auto-activation is enabled by
default. After power-up, wait 3-4 minutes to verify Unit Status » Status has updated to
show MDN/MTN and MSID/MSI numbers. If these numbers do not appear, your device
did not provision properly. Refer to the User Manual for manual activation procedures.
Note: If using GSM and your carrier is not listed, select “Generic GSM.”
Step 3 Connect the Ethernet cable to the modem’s Ethernet port and connect the other
end into the network port of your PC.
Verizon Subscribers

 Click the OTASP button to start the provisioning process.
 Confirm or enter OTASP command *22899.
Step 4 Connect the DC power cable (or optional AC power adapter) to an applicable

pin-out table when using the 3-wire cable to connect the unit to a DC power supply.
GSM Settings (SIM Card Acceptance)
Note: White and red wires must both be connected to positive DC power to power the
Vanguard router.
In GSM Settings, SIM STATUS should read SIM ACCEPTED.
If you have more than one carrier, select whether cell connection will be on the
Primary or Secondary carrier, or if automatic switching will be enabled.
At power up, all LEDs will light red, then amber, then green. When the boot sequence has
completed, RSSI will light solid green and SVC will blink green.
Subscriber Activation
In order to use the modem, it must be activated for your specific carrier. The modem
supports Over-The-Air (OTA) activation though each carrier requires a different
procedure.

Available selections and requested information in sections below in the page change,
specific to your selection of carrier(s).
Step 3 For each carrier selected (primary, and if applicable secondary), select the
applicable tab from the top of the Cell Connection page to navigate to settings for the
carrier.
 GSM Subscribers, including AT&T (NA) and Generic GSM, select GSM Settings.
