9) Configure the APN with the options '3 - APN NAME', '4 - APN LOGIN' and '5 - APN PASSWORD':
3 - APN NAME -> None 4 - APN LOGIN -> None 5 - APN PASSWORD -> None
Typically, configuring the APN is only necessary for 2G networks, not for NB or CAT-M networks and certain networks only need the 'APN NAME'. To determine whether an APN is needed, reach out to your SIM card provider.
METOS stations that come with a SIM card already, do not need any further configuration.
CONGRATULATIONS! The APN has successfully been updated.
