4.3.4 Wireless Activation Services
Note – Before using the Wireless Activation Services Interface for any purpose you must first turn off the SkyRouter’s
WAN interface. This is accomplished by setting the Wireless Connection pull down on the Wireless Interface screen to
disabled, clicking update, and then doing a restart of the unit.
The Wireless Activation Services interface serves two purposes. First, it provides a mechanism to activate the SkyRouter
on the wireless networks utilizing a form of Over The Air (OTA) activation. Secondly it may be used as a general interface
to enter specific commands, known as AT commands, to the SkyRouter’s radio module.
Over The Air Network Activation – If the wireless module in your SkyRouter is capable of performing an OTA activation
you will be presented with the option to select the appropriate activation method. Currently this capability is limited to the
OMA-DM method for Sprint-Nextel or the OTAS method for Verizon Wireless. The Verizon Wireless OTAS also updates
the unit’s PRL and can be redone whenever a new PRL is required. Sprint OMA-DM is capable of downloading a PRL
over the air but the feature is not yet implemented in the network. Because of the differences in PRL strategies the
Verizon Activation Services screen is different than the Sprint version.
