Restrictions for Modem Name

For the Modem Name, you should use something which is unique but also easy to remember. Your company name or the intended function of the modem are recommended. If you have more than one modem and want to name them the same, you can append a number for each. Since it is an Internet domain name, there are some restrictions for the name.

Must begin with a letter or number

Can include a hyphen (‐)

Cannot contain spaces

Must be no longer than 20 characters total

Data Usage for IP Manager Server

Updates

The IP Manager update is a small packet sent to the server with a response sent back to the modem. If you have *IPMGRUPDATE1 or *IPMGRUPDATE2 set to any number but zero, the modem will send the update not only when it receives a new IP address but at the time interval as well. The data traffic could be billed by your carrier.

Each update is a total of 68 bytes from the modem with a 50 byte total response from the server for a round trip update of 118 bytes.
