Re: AirMaster 4000D No Connection in confirmed B41 area

Well this is interesting -- since I had to guess at a few things while I was setting up I just was going through and changing some settings, and switched PLMN back to Mobile, and BINGO it connected right away.

So in this case, I just had to enter the ND&S info and that was it.
