2.In Watcher, select Tools > AT Commands, and use the AT!MPSTATICROUTE command to set up static routing. For more information, see the 3G MP Modems AT Command Reference manual (document #2130810).

3.Reset the modem. Select Tools > AT Commands, and use the AT!MPGRESET command to reset the MP modem.

4.Click OK.

Set up TCP/UDP port forwarding

Setting port forwarding on the MP modem causes it to forward unsolicited external IP packets with certain TCP or UDP Port IDs to specific IP addresses on the local network. If the IP addresses specified are static (that is, tied to a deviceʹs MAC address), then the packets are always forwarded to specific devices. This is required when running a server application on the local network.

When port forwarding is set up, the MP modem routes specific UDP or TCP packets from the Internet to a specified port on a specific computer (or other device) on the local network.

To configure port forwarding:

1.Unlock the MP modem configuration. In Watcher, select Tools > AT Commands and enter the AT!MPCFGOPEN=ʺxʺ, where “x” is the password. (Default password is MP3G, e.g. AT!MPCFGOPEN=ʺMP3Gʺ)

2.Select Tools > AT Commands and use the AT!MPPORTMAP command to configure the ports on the MP modem and the computer you want to direct the packets to. You will need to know the MAC address for the computer you want to configure. For more information, see the 3G MP Modems AT Command Reference manual (document #2130810).

3.Reset the modem. Select Tools > AT Commands, and use the AT!MPGRESET command to reset the MP modem.
