How to set up SIM/4G on XTRONS Android units

Postby xtrons » Wed Dec 06, 2023 10:40 am

Some of the xtrons series allow to use simcard for internet connection. Once the simcard is installed the connection should be set up automatically, but if for some reasons it wont, check the below steps:

Step 1: Check SIM card status

Please check if the sim card is detected by XTRONS units through this setting path on the unit: Setting – System -- About phone. Please kindly follow these simple steps shown below:

Step 2: Check the signal status

When your unit is connected to internet, you will see a 4G or 3G indicator next to the signal bar at the top of your screen:

Step 4: Check APN settings

Go to the settings menu and find your APN menu for the mobile network settings section as follows:

Setting path: Setting -- Network & Internet -- Mobile network -- Access Point Names

You should see the APN setting option for your sim card carrier. The APN settings should be set automatically after inserting the simcard but if it won't, you will need to add APN by yourself. Click the APN option, it will show you a configuration profile.

NOTE: Before configuring APN, we suggest you further check the latest APN setting of your sim card on the carrier website. If there is something updated, then you will need to add new APN setting on Xtrons units manually to have 4G network worked (Example: EE APN)
