Changing APN for T-Mobile and multi-carrier SIMs such as Twilio, Teal, Hologram, etc.


Step 1

  • Connect gateway to ethernet.

  • Locate the gateway’s IP address (you can use an IP scanner).

  • Get gateway’s password, which is the serial number on the sticker on the bottom of the gateway.

  • SSH into gateway using a command line interface program like Terminal on Mac or Command Prompt on PC:
    ssh root@192.168.2.xxx

  • Password is the gateway serial number.

  • Enter following commands to check the system version, current firmware, and current APN:

system_version
konaLTEmodem.py -c "at!gobiimpref?"
konaLTEmodem.py -c "AT+CGDCONT?"

Step 2

Enter the following command to change the APN.

konaLTEmodem.py -c  'at+cgdcont=1,"IP","DESIRED APN HERE","0.0.0.0",0,0'
