Configuring the Wireless Access Point

Configure security on the client computers

For each computer on the network, the network authenticity and data encryption must match the security settings used by the MP modem. Be sure to deselect the “Key provided automatically (by server)” option.

Reset the MP modem to factory defaults

You can reset the MP modem to the factory defaults using AT commands or using the reset button.

Note: It’s a good idea to have a record of the current settings before reverting to the factory settings.

To record the current settings:

1.In Watcher, select Tools > AT Commands and enter the AT!MPCFGDUMP?, AT!MPCFGDUMP?1 and AT!MPCFGDUMP?2 commands to generate a list of current settings.

To reset the MP modem to its factory default settings using AT commands:

1.Enter the AT!MPNVDEF command.

To reset the MP modem to its factory default settings using the reset button:

1.Watch the LEDs and follow this sequence:

a.Press and hold the reset button. The LEDs all turn red.

b.Release the reset button. The LEDs all turn green and then all go out.

When the LEDs all go out, repeat step a and step b until you have pressed the reset button three times.

After you release the reset button for the third time, all the LEDs turn green and then all go out. Then the two center LEDs (Tx and Rx) turn red. This indicates that the MP modem has restored the NV settings to the factory defaults. The LEDs then proceed with their regular start‐ up sequence.
