Hi George,

I get this.

IR800(config-if)#dialer pool-member 1
%Remove Legacy DDR Configuration first
IR800(config-if)#exit
IR800(config)#default interface cellular 0
Interface Cellular0 set to default configuration
IR800(config)#interface cellular 0
IR800(config-if)#ip address negotiated
IR800(config-if)#encapsulation slip
IR800(config-if)#dialer pool-member 1
%Configure a "dialer in-band" first.
IR800(config-if)#dialer in-band
IR800(config-if)#dialer pool-member 1
IR800(config-if)#dialer-group 1
%Remove Dialer Profile Configuration first
IR800(config-if)#

this is driving me crazy.

Georg Pauwen · ‎12-27-2017

Hello,

erase the entire configuration and start over again, that is probably a lot faster than messing with that message:

IR800#wr erase

johann1p1 · ‎12-27-2017

Hi George,

would it be better if i give you access to the computer I am working on and you do the configuration will I follow along. we can us TeamViewer for this purpose.

johann1p1 · ‎12-28-2017

Hi,

is this something I have to resolve?

Hi, I get this if I want to change the dialer pool.

IR800(config)#interface cellular 0
IR800(config-if)#ip address negotiated
IR800(config-if)#encapsulation slip
IR800(config-if)#dialer in-band
IR800(config-if)#dialer pool-member 1
%Remove Legacy DDR Configuration first
IR800(config-if)#

Georg Pauwen · ‎12-21-2017

Hello,

default the cellular interface and enter everything again:

IR800(config)#default interface cellular 0

Ben Walters · ‎12-22-2017

You config looks good but there are a few things that are missing, and some other things that aren't required.

Here is the Cell 0 config we use:

!
interface Cellular0
 ip address negotiated
 ip nat outside
 ip virtual-reassembly in
 encapsulation slip
 dialer in-band
 dialer idle-timeout 0
 dialer enable-timeout 6
 dialer string lte
 dialer-group 1
 async mode interactive
!

The second thing that looks like it is missing and does not show up in the sho run is the APN setting for the wireless provider.

I'm not sure what the APN setting is for your carrier (I am up in Canada, different providers) but the command is:

cell 0 lte profile create 1 <APN>

For example we use Bell as a service provider and their APN is inet.bell.ca

For things that look unnecessary, the dialer interface is not required at all, the Cell 0 interface handles everything required for network access.

scram29 · ‎04-25-2018

Hi Ben

can you post all of your config (erase all ip address)

i try to config my 891lte but nothing append

today i call bell to map sim card with the router imei

You ran the cell 0 lte profile create 1 <APN> command?

Can you post the output of show cell 0 all?
